Abstract: The present invention provides a stretchable collagen material, particularly collagen derived from fishes, having excellent stretching property and mechanical strength, which can be widely used as a cell carrier and medical material, and to a method for manufacturing the same. By thermally treating a gel comprising collagen fiber cross-linked by using cross-linking agent, the collagen enhanced in both stretching property and mechanical strength can be produced. The stretchable collagen material is extremely useful as a cell carrier material and medical material.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of producing a collagen gel comprising collagen fibers cross-linked with each other by a cross-linking agent on the way of fibrosis of collagen, and a collagen gel comprising the cross-linked collagen fibers obtained by the process. The collagen gel comprising cross-linked collagen fibers of the present invention has high strength and thermal stability and can be widely used as cell carriers and medical materials.
