Deatails of Collagen:
Brief Introduction
Collagen is a type of protein. Fibrous in nature, it connects and supports other bodily tissues, such as skin, bone, tendons, muscles, and cartilage. It also supports the internal organs and is even present in teeth. There are more than 25 types of collagens that naturally occur in the body.
Collagen is one of the most plentiful proteins present in the bodies of mammals, including humans. In fact, it makes up about 25 percent of the total amount of proteins in the body. Some people refer to collagen as the glue that holds the body together. Without it, the body would, quite literally, fall apart.
Collagen works hand-in-hand with elastinin supporting the body’s tissues. Basically, it gives body tissues form and provides firmness and strength; elastin gives the same body tissues much need flexibility. This combination of collagen and elastin is very important in many parts of the body, including, but not limited to, the lungs, bones, and tendons. Even the blood vesselsrely on both collagen and elastin.
Often, collagen is discussed in relation to the skin. It works with keratin to provide the skin with strength, flexibility, and resilience. As people age, however, collagen degradation occurs, leading to wrinkles. As such, it is an important substance for those looking for ways to fight the visible effects of aging on the skin. Some skincare professionals actually advise people on ways to stimulate the production of collagen in skin cells.

1. In food, collagen is used widely in food industry as protein nutritive source, raising the nutritive value.
2. In cosmetics, collagen can promote the growth of the dermis and repairing of the skin fibrous structure, achieving the aim of lubricating, anti-aging and soothing the wrinkle of the skin;
3. in fine fodder, as a concentrated animal protein additive agent, pure marine collagen has been used in some fine fodder with good results.
4. the use of pure collagen in aquaculture feed may improve the granulation effect which raise the availability of the feed and reduce the water pollution.
