Non-Animal-Based Collagen

Human-Based Collagen Isolated from Human Fibroblast Cell Cultures
Highly purified human-based collagen (example: CosmoDerm) is dispersed in phosphatebuffered physiological saline containing 0.3% lidocaine. The source material is isolated from human fibroblast cells grown under controlled laboratory conditions. Two forms of this human- based collagen are available and differ by the amount of collagen contained in the preparation [4].

Human-Based Collagen Cross-Linked with Glutaraldehyde
Another highly purified human-based collagen (example: CosmoPlast) is cross-linked with glutaraldehyde and dispersed in phosphatebuffered physiological saline containing 0.3% lidocaine and is used for deeper defects.
