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.
