✦ Synopsis


SIO 2 JF, United Kingdom Nondestructive and destructive uniaxial load tests were performed on natural and chemically modified bovine pericardium. Five specimens were selected from the same sites in different pericardial sacs by using a template. The mean maximum extension of one particular site in both the natural and chemically modified material was significantly greater than that of the other ositions at a stress level of 0.6 Nmm.-The maximum extensibility of P the fixed tissue was significantly greater (p < 0.01) than that of the natural tissue.

There was also an anatomical variation in tensile strength of the natural material which was retained after chemical modification. However, the overall tensile strength of the pericardium was not increased by this procedure. In contrast, glutaraldehyde fixation did increase the percentage strain at which fracture of this biomaterial occurred.

Therefore, to prevent shrinkage, we have used sandpaper-lined plexiglass plates to clamp circular samples of bovine pericardium during fixation i

Our previous two articles have shown that glutaraldehyde-fixed bovine pericardium is nearly isotropic, whether fixed without constraints, with tethering, or with pressure. In this study, we have used uniaxial stress during fixation to produce bovine pericardial material with marked tensile anisotrop
