Fig. 3

Particulated cartilage (to the left and in the middle) digested overnight with collagenase solution and thereafter embedded in fibrin matrix (upper right corner), ×10 magnification. Some of the cells (marked with arrow) have escaped cartilage matrix, but none of them have penetrated into the fibrin matrix (marked with four-point stars) after 5 weeks of cultivation. No staining for connective tissue with trichrome has been detected inside the fibrin matrix
