Figure 1: Characterization of polymer and biosynthetic-skin.
(a) SEM-Microestructure of dry polymer (bar 500 µm).

(b) Retention water capacity of polymer.
(c) Stress-Strain curve of dry and hydrated polymer.
(d) DSC-Thermogram of dry polymer.
(e) Cell growth on biosynthetic-skin and monolayer culture as control.
(f) Histology of biosynthetic-skin (bar 50 µm). Fibrin is blue staining and polymer is red staining.
