Collagen functions as a structural component of the body, providing strength and support to the extracellular matrix (ECM), and has also been shown to be highly involved in cell signaling. The physical properties of collagen are well-suited for biomedical research such as 3D cell culture, as well as regenerative medicine and medical devices.
Collagen Solutions manufactures medical grade collagen products from bovine collagen from BSE-free countries such as Austrialia and New Zealand, or closed herds from other low risk BSE countries. All products are manufactured in ISO 13485 certified facilities. Customers use our high-purity collagen for 3D cell culture research and in approved medical devices for orthopaedic, dental, wound care and other applications.
