Development of a Collagen Hydrogel with High Mechanical Strength by a Simple Orientation Method for Triple-helix

Collagen hydrogels with oriented triple-helix were fabricated simply via the axial orientation of a dense collagen solution onto a glass plate and cross-linking. The orientation of the collagen triple-helix in the gels was clearly confirmed by X-ray diffraction measurements. The tensile strength of...
