rhCollagen

rhCollagen is a recombinant form of human type I collagen produced using genetically engineered tobacco plants. The process involves introducing synthetic human genes into the plants to express procollagen, which is then extracted and purified. This plant-derived rhCollagen is structurally and biochemically identical to natural human type I collagen and does not elicit an adverse immune response in humans. Its consistent properties and safety profile make it an ideal building block for regenerative medicine applications such as 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs, medical aesthetics (including dermal fillers), wound healing, cell culture media, tissue engineering scaffolds, and soft tissue reconstruction. CollPlant’s rhCollagen technology platform enables the development of products with superior biological performance compared to animal- or cadaver-sourced collagens[1][3][5][7].
