Preparation and mechanical properties of composite cryogels. (a) Optical and von Kossa-stained images of the cryogels (Gel, MP/Gel, TMP/Gel) (scale bar = 3 mm). (b) FE SEM images (scale bar = 400 μm [upper], 20 μm [lower]) of cryogels. (c) Storage moduli of the Gel, MP/Gel, and TMP/Gel cryogels (*, significant difference from Gel, P < 0.05) (n = 4). (d) Swelling ratio of the Gel, MP/Gel, and TMP/Gel cryogels (*, significant difference from Gel and MP/Gel, P < 0.05) (n = 3). (e) Pore sizes of the cryogels calculated via FE SEM image analysis (*, significant difference from Gel, P < 0.05) (n = 9)
