90° Peel off Tests of Tissue Engineered Osteochondral Constructs: A New Method to Determine the Osteochondral Integration

Table 2

Mean and standard deviation or extremes (if less than 8 repetitions) of all measurements.

Number of repetitions	Primary bonding	Maximum force (mN)	Standard deviation or extremes (mN)	AUC (N*m)	Standard deviation or extremes (N*m)
6	Suture w/o cells	99*	24	0.48	0.17
10	Suture with cells	14	8	0.058	0.039
9	Tissuecol w/o cells	10	3	0.042	0.018
8	Tissuecol with cells	11	11	0.062	0.081
2	Thrombin, no culture	137	96–179	1.07	0.87–1.28
3	Thrombin, 2 weeks culture	271	248–305	1.62	1.10–1.57
3	Thrombin, 4 weeks culture	574	467–728	5.03	4.14–5.05

∗The 𝑡-test between the two suture groups revealed a significant difference, between the two Tissuecol groups not.
