Collagen is the most abundant naturally occurring protein polymer found in the body which has vital role in providing skin structure. Extra-cellular matrix of most connective tissues within the mammalian body is predominantly composed of collagen and comprises of almost one third of all body protein. Collagen acts as a major building block for tendons, bones, ligaments, muscles and also helps in blood clotting. Collagen is also found in the teeth, blood vessels, corneas etc.
Collagen occurs almost in 16 different types of which Type I, Type II, Type III and Type IV are major types. Collagen has vital role in body structure and is found in connective tissues of animal foods.
Currently, collagen has gained popularity as a nutritional supplement/nutraceutical and major ingredient in shampoos, lotions etc. It’s also been used in regenerative medicine in medical applications such as bone graft substitute, dental plugs, dental membranes, cartilage and tendon repair, dermal fillers, etc.
Collagen based biomaterials offer great advantage in regenerative medicine as they are safe due to biodegradability and have excellent biocompatibility due to weak antigenicity.
Collagen supplements are widely been recommended for improving muscle mass, suppression of arthritis development and progression, improving skin appearance and elasticity.
High quality collagen is manufactured commercially from marine animal sources such as fish, molluscas, jellyfish, starfish, sharks, sponge etc. Fish waste is wide worldwide and this waste is utilized to produce marine collagen for commercial applications.
