At the end of the study, storage modulus (E'), loss tangent (tanδ), ultimate force (Fu) and stiffness (S) had greatly decreased in vehicle-treated ovariectomized group as compared to sham group (p | Source Title: | Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/87703 | ISSN: | 17516161 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2013.03.009 |
