The review of versatile application of collagen

Abstract: This review reports recent advances in the versatile application of collagen. Collagen materials have attracted great attention because they exhibit properties required in cosmetic preparations, in the biomedical field, and in the tanning industry leading to leather production. Herein, the structure and application of collagen are discussed in general, and detailed examples are also drawn from scientific literature and practical work.

“…Because of this, it has started to be used in fields that require high efficiency and biocompatibility. For example, in the medical field, it is often used for implants such as artificial skin grafts, wound dressings, and nerve conduits due to its low immunogenicity . Now in cosmetics, its properties take to the development of creams and gels with high moisturizing action, but other activities are also foreseen, such as anti‐aging, antiwrinkling, UV radiation protectors, and healing of wounds among other applications .…”

Now in cosmetics, its properties take to the development of creams and gels with high moisturizing action, but other activities are also foreseen, such as anti‐aging, antiwrinkling, UV radiation protectors, and healing of wounds among other applications . Its inclusion in cosmetic formulations has to do with its film‐forming properties, when applied covers the skin and decreases the transepidermal water loss, protecting skin from corrosive elements …”

“…Other properties of CLG are anti‐aging and anti‐wrinkling; hence, CLG has been developed as a component of moisturizers or humectants for the skin . In human skin, CLG is synthesized by fibroblasts as procollagen, which is converted to a collagen molecule (the main type being type 1 CLG, 85–90%) . Recently, collagen hydrolysate (CGH) having considerably lower molecular weight than CLG has been frequently used instead of CLG for the same purpose as it can be absorbed more efficiently.…”

CLG is generally obtained from fish scale and the skin of pig and cow.…”
