The effects of glutaraldehyde fixation on the loss modulus of a Anterior strut chordae, b Anterior basal chordae, and c Posterior basal chordae. Points represent the sample means with the 95% confidence intervals included. Means were calculated based on 8 samples from 4 different hearts for each chordal type. Black dots refer to unfixed chordae, while white dots represent glutaraldehyde treated chordae
