Marine Origin Collagens and Its Potential Applications

Abstract: Collagens are the most abundant high molecular weight proteins in both invertebrate and vertebrate organisms, including mammals, and possess mainly a structural role, existing different types according with their specific organization in distinct tissues. From this, they have been elected as one of the key biological materials in tissue regeneration approaches. Also, industry is constantly searching for new natural sources of collagen and upgraded methodologies for their production. The most common sources are… Show more

“…These values correspond only to the acidic extraction and may indicate that collagen from Codfish skins is more resilient to this extraction and that it may be necessary to use further enzymatic extraction [36]. Furthermore, these values are in accordance with those observed in other studies with the same species or others [36,37].…”

“…A slightly shift in the position of the α and β chains can be observed between the species. This may be probably due to differences in the amino acid composition that lead to slight alterations in the molecular weight [37]. …”

“…19,20 It is possible to use fish discards to isolate collagen, which is further used in various biomedical fields, such as in wound dressing. 21 However, effective wound dressings should have suitable tensile strength, a certain degree of antibacterial activity, as well as the ability to promote skin regeneration early. Therefore, in this study, fish collagen and BG were used to fabricate multifunctional and inexpensive electrospun fish Col/BG composite nanofibers.…”

“…As the extraction of biomedical material from mammalian tissue is always accompanied by concerns about the safety of the material, new sources have received attention in recent years. These include poultry as well as marine sources of collagen like fish, shark, jellyfish and marine sponges [18]. However, the production of collagen from these sources is still limited.…”
