Figure 3

Force versus time diagram of the peel off tests of (a) collagen type II cartilage scaffold constructs without seeded chondroblasts created with fibrin glue, (b) collagen type II cartilage scaffold constructs with seeded chondroblasts created with fibrin glue, (c) constructs with a collagen type I/III cartilage scaffold created with eight units of fibrin glue tested directly after the bonding, (d) constructs with a collagen type I/III cartilage scaffold tested after two weeks of culture time, and (e) constructs with a collagen type I/III cartilage scaffold tested after four weeks of culture time.
