Collagen is a fibrous protein found in the extracellular matrix that plays a crucial role in maintaining the structural integrity and tensile strength of tissues. It has been widely used in various industries for over a century due to its abundance and affordability. However, most collagen products are not thoroughly purified, which can lead to inflammatory reactions in some users. Additionally, there are concerns about contamination with the agent responsible for mad cow disease, as well as its human variant, Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease. Animal collagens undergo continuous modifications in the extracellular space, resulting in variations in their extractability and biophysical characteristics. Consequently, collagens obtained from different tissues display significant variability and are often challenging to analyze. Products containing animal-derived collagen can potentially trigger harmful immune and inflammatory responses in humans, as well as carry the risk of viral or prion contamination, which can be life-threatening. In contrast, recombinant collagens closely resemble native collagen, thus minimizing the risks of inflammation, immune responses, and disease associated with animal-sourced collagen.

Product Guarantee

If your product is within its expiration period, and has not performed according to expectations, fill out the sample return form. Return the unused sample frozen, with the auto generated packing slip to the address on the instructions. You will receive a full refund along with a replacement of the unused portion (inclusive of the failed test). Damages do not cover any additional costs incurred for failed experimentation. 

Storage Instruction

Lyophilized Collagen-I although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18C. Upon reconstitution Collagen-I should be stored at 4C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Sample Prep Instruction

It is recommended to Add 0.5 M acetic acid, pH 2.5 to prepare a working stock solution not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
