Matexcel Collagen from human skin NAT-0006

Collagen is classified into a number of structurally and genetically distinct types. We use the nomenclature proposed by Bornstein and Traub. Source: human skin Storage: 2-8°C Application: Collagen type I may be used in research of Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Robust expression of Collagen-type I is one distinctive feature of IPF. Additionally, Collagen-type I has been used in studies on the effect of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress from IPF on myofibroblastic differentiation of lung fibroblasts. Collagen-type I soluble in acidic solution produces three dimensional scaffolding useful in bioengineering and cell culture applications where biomaterials are needed to replace native Collagen extracellular matrices. Collagen Type I has been used as a scaffold for the growth in vitro of stem cells in a wide variety of biomaterial engineering studies. solubility: aqueous acid: ≤5 mg/mL Purity: ~95% (SDS-PAGE)
