چکیده

Semicarbazide affected both the final width and stability of fibrils reconstituted from solutions of acid-soluble collagen. Fibril width was increased after semicarbazide treatment at pH2.6 and 4.3, whereas after treatment at pH8.9 it decreased. Fibril stability was decreased after semicarbazide treatment at all values of pH and temperature, indicating the inhibition of intermolecular cross-linking. A direct binding of semicarbazide to the alphabeta-unsaturated aldehyde groups in the intramolecular cross-link was demonstrated.

Evaluating the effect of pH on mechanical strength and cell compatibility of nanostructured collagen hydrogel by the plastic compression method

Objective(s): One of the main constraints of collagen hydrogel scaffolds for using in tissue engineering is mechanical weakness. Plastic compression (PC) is a physical method to overcome the mechanical limitation of collagen hydrogel. Materials and Methods: In this study, the effects of pH on mechanical and biological properties of PC hydrogels were investigated. Collagen hydrogels were fabrica...
