From: Templated freezing: a simple method may increase gripping force of the clamp on the tendon
Gauze group and pocket group of chicken tendons. A. Gauze group, the tendons were wrapped around the outside of the clamping line for two circles and then tied firmly, trying to increase the friction between the gauze and the clamping surface of the clamp through the uneven surface of the gauze. After cutting off the excess gauze, the tendons were installed in the clamp for testing B. Pocket group. Pockets are made of non-woven fabric encircled by an insulation layer composed of aluminum foil, thickened polyethylene(PE) and pearl cotton are fixed to clamps on both sides. Keep plenty of dry ice in the pocket to provide a low-temperature environment
