Fig. 3From: Porcine pulmonary valve decellularization with NaOH-based vs detergent process: preliminary in vitro and in vivo assessmentsValves characteristics: Mechanical properties and DNA content. a: Stiffness (K: N/mm) and maximal load before rupture (F max: Newton) of leaflet and wall of NPV, DDPV and DPV. No significant differences were observed between groups. b: DNA content (ng/mg) in muscle, leaflet and wall of NPV, DDPV and DPVBack to article page
