Abstract: There is a need to provide a collagen powder having desirable product characteristics, such as high fluid absorption capacity, while also having processing characteristics that allow commercial manufacturing and handling of the collagen powder. The present invention relates to a collagen powder, a method of manufacture thereof, and uses thereof. In particular, the present invention relates to a process for preparing a collagen powder, the process comprising the steps of providing a collagen source; adjusting the concentration of the collagen source; adjusting the pH of the collagen source; freezing the collagen source; dehydrating the frozen collagen; and degrading the dehydrated collagen to a powder.

Abstract: The invention relates to a piston for a piston-cylinder arrangement, particularly a shock absorber piston, which includes a piston body, that has a circumferential surface. A sealing collar has an outer circumferential surface, an inner circumferential surface, a first peripheral surface, and a first sealing lip, and extends around the circumferential surface of the piston body and covers at least part of the circumferential surface in the axial direction. The first peripheral surface connects the two circumferential surfaces to each other at a first end of the sealing collar. The first sealing lip is delimited by the first peripheral surface and the outer circumferential surface, and the first sealing lip is configured evenly in the circumferential direction.
