Figures & Tables

Figure 1

Growth kinetics of rat mesenchymal stem cells cultured in hydrogels. Squares indicate hydrogels made of 4% silk fibroin (SF) solution only (SF hydrogel), circles indicate hydrogels made of 4% SF solution + 0.05% collagen solution (SF/0.05C hydrogel), and triangles indicate hydrogels made of 4% SF solution + 0.1% collagen solution (SF/0.1C hydrogel). Error bars are standard deviations of triplicate experiments.
