abstract |
The present invention provides a collagen molded body, particularly fish-derived, excellent in elasticity and mechanical strength, which can be widely used as a cell carrier and a medical material, and a method for producing the same. A collagen molded article having both good stretchability and high mechanical strength can be produced by heat-treating a gel comprising collagen fibers crosslinked by a crosslinking agent. This stretchable collagen molded body is extremely useful as a cell carrier and a medical material. [Selection figure] None |
