Collagen-I Protein, Bovine Skin

Description NOTE: Higher-purity Type I Collagen is now available at a lower cost here: Promed Bioscience High-Purity Collagen Bovine Collagen-I is a natural protein purified from bovine skin. Collagen-I is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Purified Type I Collagen is used in many research applications such as cell culture surface coatings, tissue engineering scaffolds, 3D bioprinting, and cell functional assays. Summary Collagen, a major component of the extracellular matrix, is a fibrous protein that provides tensile strength to tissues giving them structural integrity. Collagens contribute to mechanical properties, organization, and shape of tissues. Collagen is the most widely used extracellular matrix (ECM) protein for cell culture, facilitating cell attachment, growth, differentiation, migration, and tissue morphogenesis. Type I Collagen is by far the most abundant protein in all vertebrates. It assembles into fibers that form the structural and mechanical scaffo
