Fig.3a-c

Porosity and elution properties of five ALBC preparations. All data are displayed in box and whisker plots. a Total porosity: no differences between groups are significant. b Surface porosity: Type A (control) has the lowest surface porosity, which is significantly less than that of types D and E. c Total amount of antibiotic eluted in 1 week. Type D eluted the most antibiotic, significantly more than type A which hadthe second highest elution amount
