23 Jul COLLAGEN BASED BIOMATERIAL AND A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION THEREOF
Abstract
The invention provides the biomaterials comprising of collagen, polysaccharide and polyphenol, wherein the biomaterial is having more biocompatibility and prolonged or enhanced stability against proteolytic enzymes. The biomaterials with the above new properties using the simple addition or inclusion of polyphenols is economical and safer for the tissue engineering and other biomedical applications. The biomaterial can be designed into any physical states or shapes for different kind of applications like injectables, films, foams or other scaffold forms. This can also be used as carrier or vehicle for controlled drug delivery in disease treatment or growth factor delivery in tissue engineering. This also has scope for application in plastic surgery and as implants for the delivery of drugs in tumor treatment.
