Product Applications Read our Collagen Hydrogel Shear Modulus whitepapers The graph below demonstrates gelation kinetics of our collagen hydrogels. The collagen was neutralized according to respective protocols and placed in specialized containers within the 37°C chamber of the rheometer. Shear Modulus G' (Pa) is shown on the Y axis compared to Time (minutes) on the X axis. All of the below products are in inventory and are available for order.

Our lyophilized rat tail collagen contains 100 mg of highly purified telocollagen. Our collagen is highly purified, lot-to-lot consistent, and on-the-shelf (available). Lyophilized collagen can be reconstituted at a broad range of concentrations.
