General description

Collagen is a major component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and offers low immunogenicity, a porous structure, good permeability, and biocompatibility to promote cell viability, adhesion, spreading, proliferation and differentiation.

Methacrylate functionalized collagen is a polymerizable hydrogel material derived from low endotoxin ovine collagen. The addition of photocrosslinkable methacrylate functional groups allows the photopolymerization of biocompatible, biodegradable, and non-immunogenic hydrogels which can encapsulate cells and be used in many biomedical applications. This methacrylate functionalized collagen is also a great alternative to other naturally derived collagens such as those derived from bovine or porcine.
