The present invention resides in a method for producing jellyfish collagen hydrogels and kits for producing the same. The jellyfish collagen hydrogels can be used in the culture of cells. According to the invention, there is a process for producing jellyfish collagen hydrogels comprising jellyfish collagen fibrils, said process comprising the steps of: mixing a solution of purified jellyfish collagen and an aqueous neutralisation buffer; and incubating the mixture for a sufficient time to enable jellyfish collagen fibrils to form, wherein a cross-linking agent is either added during to mixing step or during or after the incubation of the mixture. |
