On the Mechanical Roles of Glycosaminoglycans in the Tensile Properties of Porcine Corneal Stroma

PURPOSE: The cornea is primarily composed of collagen fibrils that are embedded in a ground substance rich in proteoglycans and other glycoproteins. It is known that glycosaminoglycan (GAG) side chains of proteoglycans form anti-parallel duplexes between collagen fibrils. The present work was done i...
