| POROUS STRUCTURE OF NEUROGEL | |  | NeuroGel™ is a polymer matrix (Figure A) with a highly porous structure (Figure B) which allows the infiltration of cells, blood vessels and nerve cells (Figure C) after implantation into a lesion of the spinal cord, thereby allowing the cellular reconstruction of the lesion. | | Figure A Scanning electron microscopy at variable pressure of NeuroGel™ | | Figure B Imaging of the porous structure of NeuroGel™: The brown cubes are the actual porous structure, the blue represent the throat of the pores and the circles on the top view represent the size/diameter of the various pores on the structure | | Figure C Infiltration of nerve cells into the NeuroGel™ |
