Complete Cell Killing by Applying High Hydrostatic Pressure for Acellular Vascular Graft Preparation

Figure 6

Schematic image of an effect of the pressure treatment on cell killing process. Under the pressure at below 200 MPa, the cells were adhered. When the cells were treated with the pressure at more than 200 MPa, the pressure induced the inactivation of the enzyme and cell permeability and led to cell killing.
