The alteration of the structure and macroscopic mechanical response of porcine patellar tendon by elastase digestion
Background: The treatment of patellar tendon injury has always been an unsolved problem, and mechanical characterization is very important for its repair and reconstruction. Elastin is a contributor to mechanics, but it is not clear how it affects the elasticity, viscoelastic properties, and structu...
