Melting of quaternary structure of collagen fibers occurs below pH 4.5. Melting confers thromboresistance to the scaffold, platelets Do not aggregate unless Image removed due to copyright considerations the quaternary structure Is intact. Blocking of platelet aggregation leads to downregulation of the inflammatory response at the site of grafting or implantation
