Description
The VitroCol lyophilized product comes with 15 mg of type I human atelocollagen used for 2D coatings or as a collagen standard. VitroCol collagen is naturally secreted from human neo-natal fibroblast cells, then processed and purified to yield the naturally produced human collagen. VitroCol sets the standard for purity (>99% collagen content), functionality and represents the only native-like human collagen offered. VitroCol is approximately 97% Type I human collagen with the remainder being comprised of Type III collagen. This product is supplied as a lyophilized powder with 15 mg of human collagen. When reconstituted with 5 ml of sterile 0.01 N HCl, a concentration of approximately 3 mg/ml is achieved. VitroCol is especially ideal for human cell culture systems when coating of surfaces and providing preparations of thin layers of culturing cells. VitroCol, lyophilized form is not recommended for the formation of a solid gel. VitroCol is supplied as a sterile, lyophilized powder
