3.2.2. Active biomechanical properties
Vaginal tissue contraction (Figure 3) in response to KCl was higher at
180 days (226.90 mN ± 79.08, SEM) in comparison to 60 days
post-implantation (148.53 mN ± 22.76, SEM). Vaginal tissue exhibited
higher contractile function after P4HB scaffold implantation compared to
after PP mesh implantation (37.87 mN ± 18.99, SEM at 60-day and 199.49
mN ± 71.56, SEM at 180-day), however the difference at both time points
was not statistically significant.
