Product Detail
Name: Hydrolyzed Collagen
CAS: 92113-31-0
Feature:
Hydrolyzed Collagen (HC) is a group of peptides with low molecular weight (3–6 KDa) that can be obtained by enzymatic action in acid or alkaline media at a specific incubation temperature. HC can be extracted from different sources such as bovine or porcine. These sources have presented health limitations in the last years. Recently research has shown good properties of the HC found in skin, scale, and bones from marine sources. Type and source of extraction are the main factors that affect HC properties, such as molecular weight of the peptide chain, solubility, and functional activity. HC is widely used in several industries including food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, biomedical, and leather industries. The present review presents the different types of HC, sources of extraction, and their applications as a biomaterial.
Hydrolyzed Collagen has the following applications/functions:
1. Hydrolyzed Collagen applications as functional supplementation food with positive effect on the skin. because Hydrolyzed Collagen supplementation reaches the deeper layers of the skin and improves skin physiology and appearance increasing hydration, elasticity, firmness, wrinkle reduction, and skin rejuvenation. HC from milkfish scales exhibited excellent water-holding capacity, moisture absorption, and retention as well as anti-skin aging, and anti-melanogenic capacities, proving a potential active ingredient in skin care products.
2. HC presents antioxidant and antimicrobial activity, so it can be used as a functional ingredient in food supplements as well.
3. Hydrolyzed Collagen can attach calcium ions, improving its bioavailability, therefore, HC can be used in functional food ingredients in the management of mineral deficiencies.
4. HC acts as an anticoagulant because it helps to decrease the damage in cells and tissues originated by low temperatures, therefore, it could be useful in foods that require storage in cold or freezing temperatures.
5. Hydrolyzed Collagen presents good biocompatibility and biodegradability, hence, it is safe and effective as a biomaterial, it has been used in the last years as a safe and effective biomaterial in tissue engineering and clinical applications.
