The changes in tensile strength, elongation at break, and high strain modulus of dermal sheep collagen (DSC) during in vitro degradation using bacterial collagenase were studied. The changes in mechanical properties were compared with the change in weight of the samples as a function of degradation
## Abstract Fibroblasts can condense a hydrated collagen lattice to a tissue‐like structure. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of substrate adhesion on the contraction and mechanical properties of fibroblast populated collagen lattices. Bacteriological grade polystyrene (BGPS) pl
