Abstract:
The aim of this manuscript was to evaluate the major technical problems on the isolation and characterization of the collagen from fish waste materials that were usually faced by the growing researchers. Although the original research article published by authors contributed new information to the literature, some of them were failed to provide sufficient details in order to reproduce the study as well as could not adequately interpret/compared the results with other publications. Therefore, it is required to research the technical problems during the isolation and characterization of the collagen. This technical note provides the information which is crucial for the reader's and growing researchers for understanding as an essential part of the published research studies about the collagen extraction and characterization. Hence, this technical note may be helpful to those working on the collagen extraction and characterization from fish/marine waste materials.
