Isolation, Characterization and Evaluation of Collagen from Jellyfish Rhopilema esculentum Kishinouye for Use in Hemostatic Applications

Abstract: Hemostat has been a crucial focus since human body is unable to control massive blood loss, and collagen proves to be an effective hemostat in previous studies. In this study, collagen was isolated from the mesoglea of jellyfish Rhopilema esculentum Kishinouye and its hemostatic property was studied. The yields of acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-soluble (PSC) were 0.12% and 0.28% respectively. The SDS-PAGE patterns indicated that the collagen extracted from jellyfish mesoglea was type I collagen. The ly… Show more

“…The absorbance of the resulting hemoglobin solution was measured at 540 nm by using a Lambda 25 UV‐visible spectrophotometer (Perkin Elmer). The blood clotting index (BCI) was calculated on the basis of Equation BCI=DnormalsD0, where D s is the absorbance of the resulting hemoglobin solution mentioned above, and D 0 is the absorbance of 100 μL of whole blood hemolyzed with 2.5 mL of deionized water.…”

“…Recently, the jellyfish R. esculentum has received some attention as the type I collagen extracted from this species is quite similar to the human type, making it suitable for different applications in the biomedical field [10]. It was cross-linked with 1-Ethyl 3-(3-Dimethylaminoprophyl)-Carbodiimide (EDC) to form collagen-based sponges which showed hemostatic properties as blood clotting after tail amputation in rats, suggesting that it may be a suitable candidate for hemostatic material and wound-dressing applications [31]. Moreover, peptides derived from R. esculentum collagen were involved in wound-healing processes in vivo, by increasing the production of chemotactic factors TGF-β1 and β-FGF [124].…”

“…Other sources such as marine collagen are arising as a relevant alternative to their mammalian counterparts. Several organisms such as marine sponges [5,6], jellyfish [7,8], squid [9,10], and fishes [11][12][13][14] have been exploited for the extraction of marine collagen. About 75% of a fish's…”
