Analysis of Proteoglycan Content and Biomechanical Properties in Arthritic and Arthritis-Free Menisci

Analysis of Proteoglycan Content and Biomechanical Properties in Arthritic and Arthritis-Free Menisci

Studies on osteoarthritis of the knee have examined isolated aspects of the meniscus biomechanically and histologically, but not the difference between instantaneous modulus (IM) in healthy and diseased samples. The aim of this study is to investigate the difference in the biomechanical behavior and...
