Description

Lyophilized methacrylated Type I collagen. Methacrylated Collagen provides native-like 3D collagen gels with the unique attributes to be prepared at various concentrations and photocrosslinked (requires a photoinitiator) to provide various gel stiffness. The methacrylated Type I collagen is produced from telo-peptide intact bovine collagen where the collagen has been modified by reacting the free amines, primarily the ε-amines groups of the lysine residues as well as the a-amines groups on the N-termini. > 20% of the total lysine residues of the collagen molecule have been methacrylated. The collagen is extracted from bovine hide and contains a high monomer content. This product is for R&D use only and is not intended for human or other uses.
