Collagen Based Materials for Biomedical Applications: Preparation and Properties

Article Preview

Abstract:

Collagen-based materials were prepared and their properties were studied. The shape of collagen materials was as follows: thin films, hydrogels, and sponges. Microstructure and mechanical properties of films and sponges were studied. The effect of cross-linking agents and the effect of synthetic polymer on the properties of collagen materials were studied and analyzed. Collagen-based materials can be considered as potential biomaterials in tissue engineering.
