Collagen

A universal characteristic of living nature is the regeneration of destroyed or lost tissue structures independently of external influences or help. It is this ability that modern medicine specifically seeks to use: modern medicine does not just repair defects, it also stimulates the process of regeneration of organ grafts that are identical to the body's own.

Medicine not only exploits knowledge of genetic information and of physiological correlations, but observations of spatial structures and surface characteristics also play a notable role in the creation of potent stimulants of natural regenerative processes.

In the development of our collagen products we consistently apply these basic principles of modern medicine.

Collagens are important components of all connective and supportive tissues in the entire organism. They represent a natural substrate for the growth of many tissues, and are therefore an ideal matrix for cell and tissue cultures.

In the field of tissue engineering it has been demonstrated that Resorba's collagen products are the best possible matrix for the growth and proliferation of cells that are generally difficult to cultivate. For this reason regenerative medicine has gained a potent tool for the cultivation of cells and tissues, as well as for the successful treatment of defects.
