Pharmaceutical Industry Fish Collagen Granule For Joint Care Products
Beyond Biopharma Fish Collagen Granule
Collagen is the major insoluble fibrous protein in the extracellular matrix and in connective tissue 1). In fact, collagen is the single most abundant protein in humans, collagen comprises one-third of the total protein, accounts for three-quarters of the dry weight of skin, and is the most prevalent component of the extracellular matrix. Type I collagen is the predominant form accounting for up to 90% of all the collagen proteins.
2). In the skin, collagen, in conjunction with other proteins, such as elastin, forms the basic flexible and pliable matrix that incorporates living dermal cells, blood vessels, sebaceous glands, and other components of the extracellular matrix (glycosaminoglycans, glycoproteins)
3). Collagen is a major structural protein, forming molecular cables that strengthen the tendons and resilient sheets that support the skin and internal organs. Bones and teeth are made by adding mineral crystals to collagen. Collagen provides structure to your bodies, protecting and supporting the softer tissues and connecting them with the skeleton. But, in spite of its critical function in the body, collagen is a relatively simple protein.

The key information you need to know about fish collagen type I and type 3
1. Raw materials used to produce collagen: Since type I and type 3 Collagen existed in skins and blood vessel of animal body, the hydrolyzed fish collage type I and type 3 is produced from the fish scales and skin. The appearance of the material is white to off-white powder with a slight fishy odor.
2. People also call the hydrolyzed collagen Collagen peptides: It is also named as collagen peptides because the triple helix structure of the 3 amino acids are broken and cut into small pieces.
Short chain of amino acids are usually called peptides.
3. Low Molecular weight: The collagen type I and type 3 has a low molecular weight of around 1500 Dalton.
4. Good Solubility: It is the small molecular weight that makes the collagen peptides has a good solubility into water, even in cold water.
5. Bulk density and flowability: The collagen powder is with a bulk density of around 0.3g/ml which is not so high, thus, sometimes we add a granulation process to produce it into granular forms to improve the bulk density and flowability and make the material easy for tablet compressing or capsules filling.
6. Benefits and applications: Hydrolyzed fish collagen type I has a wide range of application including joint care dietary supplements, sports nutrition foods, energy bar, snacks and cosmetics products.
Benefits and applications of hydrolyzed collagen peptides?
Hydrolyzed fish collagen type I has a wide range of applications in food, supplements and cosmetic industries.
1. Joint health dietary supplements products: Collagen type I is the key component of the connective tissues in joint cartilages. People take dietary supplements which contain collagen type I to improve the cartilage health of their joints. Usually collagen is formulated with other joint care ingredients such as chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine.
2. Skin care products: Collagen has strong stretching ability due to its molecular structure. It is the collagen that improves the elasticity of our skin. Usually collagen will be generated by our body, but as we aged, the ability of generating collagen will decrease. Thus, we need to additionally take collagen from cosmetics or supplements to maintain the health of our skin.
3. Food application: hydrolyzed fish collagen is also a great energy provide. It could be used to produce foods, snacks and energy bars.
4. Sports nutrition: Hydrolyzed fish collagen is also used in the sports nutrition foods intended for people who enjoys working out, body building and playing sports.
