Compressive properties and GAG content increased in samples stored at physiological temperature. A significant increase was found in the (A) aggregate modulus and (B) SM values of samples stored at 37°C beginning after 1 week. (C) GAG normalized by DW also increased after a month in samples stored at 37°C. The compressive properties and GAG content were not adversely affected by storage at 4°C or lower. The asterisks denotes significant differences compared to the control condition based on Fisher's LSD post hoc test (* denotes p < 0.05). GAG, glycosaminoglycan; SM, shear modulus.
