Marine Biomaterials

Abstract

Collagens are high-molecular-weight complex dominant proteins present in all living organisms. Various organisms have been exploited to extract collagen of different types, through different extraction methodologies. Marine organisms are excellent alternative sources of huge amounts of collagen. Marine vertebrates, including whale, fishes, seals, and sea otters, are significant sources of marine collagen. Moreover, marine invertebrates such as jellyfish, marine sponges, cuttlefish, and octopus are also considerable sources of marine collagen with significant clinical values. Marine collagen is a promising tool for wide-ranging clinical applications including as a drug delivery system for cancer and other diseases.
