The Influence of Negative Pressure and of the Harvesting Site on the Characteristics of Human Adipose Tissue-Derived Stromal Cells from Lipoaspirates

Table 4

The cell mitochondrial activity of ADSCs. The cell mitochondrial activity of ADSCs measured on days 3 and 7. No significant difference was observed between the outer thigh and the abdomen harvesting sites. The inner thigh region was not statistically compared to the outer thigh and abdomen regions due to the relatively small sample size.
