Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a porous gelatin sheet having cell proliferation properties; a porous gelatin sheet having cell proliferation properties; and use thereof. According to the present invention, there is provides a method for producing a porous gelatin sheet that includes chambers, in which at least half of the chambers are spherical, and/or at least half of the chambers have a diameter that is within ±30% of an average chamber diameter, and the chambers have an average diameter of less than 100 ?m.

Abstract: A hydrogel comprising: water; an alginate; a glucono-delta-lactone (GDL); and microparticles comprising an inorganic calcium compound and recombinant gelatin. The hydrogels may be used for bone repair and/or regeneration.

Abstract: Composites and scaffolds suitable for bone void filling comprising at least a recombinant gelatin and hydroxyapatite in which the recombinant gelatin comprises glutamic and aspartic acid residues that are distributed homogeneously along a gelatin chain, wherein: (i) the recombinant gelatin comprises a total of at least a 8% glutamic and/or aspartic acids amount per 60 amino acids in row with a standard deviation of at most 1.6; (ii) the hydroxyapatite is obtained by precipitation in the presence of the recombinant gelatin.

Abstract: The invention provides a sheet material that is of use as an equivalent to skin for in vitro testing of cosmetic ingredients and/or formulations. The sheet material comprises protein and a humidity control agent so that it is ready to use. Tests that can be performed on the sheet material are for example make up smearing, colour evaluation, sun protection factor measurements, UVA-protection, water resistance of cosmetic products, sunless tanning applications, etc.

Abstract: The present invention relates to cell carrier particles prepared from recombinantly produced gelatins comprising at least two outer lysine residues which are separated by at least 25 percent of the total number of amino acids in the recombinant gelatin polypeptide. The invention is also directed at applications in which such cell carriers are used, for example as injectable cell carrier, for tissue augentation or cosmetic surgery or as microcarrier in in vitro cell cultivation.
