ABSTRACT

Collagen is a protein that is a major component of animal skins and tendons. It is used in various medical, cosmetic, and food products through extraction and purification. The fibrous products of purified collagen fibers extracted from raw mammal materials have relatively excellent mechanical properties and are used for high-end medical products. In this study, we examined collagen materials produced from porcine and fish skins, which are major sources of collagen raw materials. We examined a method for spinning collagen fibers from fish skin-based collagen and analyzed the physical properties of those collagen fibers. In addition, we examined the characteristics and advantages of conjugated fibers according to their porcine- and/or fish skin-based compositions. The spinnability and mechanical properties of these conjugated fibers were analyzed according to their compositions. The mechanical properties of collagen structure are determined by hydroxyproline content and can be manipulated by the composition of collagen in the conjugated fibers.
