Human and bovine spinal disc mechanics subsequent to trypsin injection

Objective: To investigate the biomechanical effects of injections of a protease on the characteristics of bovine coccygeal and human lumbar disc motion segments. Methods: Mechanics of treated tissues were measured immediately after injection and 3 h after injection. Motion segments underwent axial r...
