In vitro Synthesis of Native, Fibrous Long Spacing and Segmental Long Spacing Collagen
Published on: September 20, 2012
Abstract:
Collagen samples from dog-fish egg case at different water content were studied by the 1H NMR relaxation method. The dependences of the proton spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation rates on the concentration of water in hydrated native collagen were measured. The fractions of water protons of different mobility and their corresponding spin-spin and spin-lattice relaxation rates were determined in a multi-phase model of water protons in natural biopolymer-water systems. The correlation times were calculated as the characteristics of molecular motion in hydrated collagens with different content of absorbed water. The results obtained were compared with literature data of pulse NMR studies of molecular mobility in other collagen fibers.
