Characterisation of Natural Biomaterial Properties

Capability Description

We have developed a range of testing methodologies in order to characterise the material properties of natural tissues. This includes tensile/compressive testing to failure, creep/stress relaxation testing, and suture pull-out testing, for a range of biological tissues such as heart valves, ligaments, tendons, bone-patellar-tendon-bone constructs, arteries, meniscus etc
