Implication

Review highlights alternatives to traditional collagen sources in biomaterials, suggesting improved safety and applications.

Key Points

The aim is to explore alternative collagen sources, including marine and recombinant technologies, and their applications.
Reviewing different sources of collagen including animal, marine, and recombinant origins.
Discussing biocompatibility and biodegradability of collagen materials.
Evaluating immunogenic responses related to different collagen sources.
Marine collagens show lower immunogenic responses compared to mammalian sources.
Recombinant technologies produce human-like collagens with tailored properties.
Diverse collagen sources enhance availability for applications in food, biomedical, and cosmetics.
