Figure 2

The biomechanical properties of the human acellular scalp (AS) are shown in comparison to the human native scalp (NS), acellular human temporal muscle fascia (ATMF) and human acellular dura mater (ADM). (A) Elastic modulus; Emod, elastic modulus (in MPa) (B) ultimate tensile strength; UTS, ultimate tensile strength (in MPa) (C) strain at maximum force; SFmax, strain at maximum force (in %) The outlines of the boxes indicate the 25% and 75% percentile, the solid black horizontal line the median. Whiskers represent the minimum and maximum. The asterisks indicate significantly different p-values (*, p ≤ 0.05; **, p ≤ 0.01).
