General description

FibriCol® collagen is approximately 97% Type I collagen with the remainder being comprised of Type III collagen. It contains a high monomer content as measured by gel permeation chromatography.

It is ideal for applications where high concentrations of collagen are needed. FibriCol® collagen is provided in a 20 mL volume and is contained in user-friendly packaging for use and storage. FibriCol® is sterile filtered and is supplied as a ready to use solution.

Application

FibriCol® has been used:

  • in the preparation of liposome-loaded co-gels to treat methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections in vitro and in vivo
  • in the preparation of gelatin-methacrylate (gelMA)-collagen gels to study the effects of stiffness and fiber density on cellular behavior in breast cancer cell lines
  • in the preparation of collagen hydrogels to study its effects on macrophage response in partial thickness abdominal wall defect rat models
