Schematic of rheometer setup of magnetically responsive fibrin hydrogels (A) without and (B) with a magnetic field (MF). Quantification of instantaneous bead displacement undergoing (C) 10 Pa, (D) 25 Pa, (E) 50 Pa shear stress with and without 1000-Oe magnetic field (n = 35 per condition). (F) Average width of the instantaneous displacement distribution. (G) Creep rate measured by tracking bead displacement in fibrin gels exposed to 50 Pa of shear stress over 30 seconds (n = 3). (H) Creep angle measured from the rheometer. These fibrin hydrogels contained 1 wt% of MPs. * p < 0.05
