Abstrakt: | In this paper, terahertz (THz) pulsed spectroscopy and solid immersion microscopy were applied to study interactions between water vapor and tissue scaffolds-the decellularized bovine pericardium (DBP) collagen matrices, in intact form, cross-linked with the glutaraldehyde or treated by plasma. The water-absorbing properties of biomaterials are prognostic for future cell-mediated reactions of the recipient tissue with the scaffold. Complex dielectric permittivity of DBPs was measured in the 0.4-2.0 THz frequency range, while the samples were first dehydrated and then exposed to water vapor atmosphere with 80.0 ± 5.0% relative humidity. These THz dielectric measurements of DBPs and the results of their weighting allowed to estimate the adsorption time constants, an increase of tissue mass, as well as dispersion of these parameters. During the adsorption process, changes in the DBPs' dielectric permittivity feature an exponential character, with the typical time constant of =8-10 min, the transient process saturation at =30 min, and the tissue mass improvement by =1-3%. No statistically-relevant differences between the measured properties of the intact and treated DBPs were observed. Then, contact angles of wettability were measured for the considered DBPs using a recumbent drop method, while the observed results showed that treatments of DBP somewhat affects their surface energies, polarity, and hydrophilicity. Thus, our studies revealed that glutaraldehyde and plasma treatment overall impact the DBP-water interactions, but the resultant effects appear to be quite complex and comparable to the natural variability of the tissue properties. Such a variability was attributed to the natural heterogeneity of tissues, which was confirmed by the THz microscopy data. Our findings are important for further optimization of the scaffolds' preparation and treatment technologies. They pave the way for THz technology use as a non-invasive diagnosis tool in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interest.
