For research & medical devices

UniColl®: The future of collagen applications

UniColl® is a medical type I collagen made from bovine hides according to ISO 22442. With its native triple helix structure and self-assembly capability, it is ideally suitable for applications in medicine and research. Produced under the most stringent conditions, UniColl® is the first choice for the development and manufacture of medical devices and for bio-medical science.

Endotoxin-free collagen for the highest standards

UniColl® is a soluble molecular collagen with an intact native triple helical conformation and N- and C-terminal telopeptides.  A special endotoxin deactivation method guarantees collagen that is free from endotoxins (< 0.5 EU/mg). The collagen possesses a natural biological activity such as the formation of fibrils, cell-matrix interactions and bio-compatibility. Thanks to its quality it is especially suitable for use in medical devices and in biomedical research.

UniColl®: The future of biomaterials

Native collagens have already proved to be extremely helpful in numerous medical applications.  UniColl® sets itself apart due to its four outstanding features which make it a superior option for medical applications and research purposes.

Premium quality

Made of bovine hides according to ISO 22442 in endotoxin-free, medical quality.

Natural structure

Keeps its natural, native structure for optimum interaction with biological systems.

Self-organisation

Telocollagen, which is able to form collagen fibrils due to its nativity.

Versatility

Telocollagen is suitable as a basic element for a great number of applications in research and development up to manufacture of medical devices.

Medical devices redefined

Applications – UniColl® in practice

UniColl® is a versatile fundamental technology with a wide range of application possibilities. Being a multi-potent collagen biomaterial toolbox, the collagen offers optimum flexibility for the specific requirements of users. Its technological and application-oriented versatility mainly results from three key factors: solubility, natural self-organisation into three-dimensional fibrillar matrices and medical quality.
