Message: | Collagen is an important protein that exists ubiquitously in the body. It is naturally contained in high amounts in the skin, bone, joint cartilage, blood vessels, tendons, and teeth. It occupies one third of total body protein maintaining youthfulness, health and beauty. Bovine Collagen Peptide is an enzymatically decomposed product consisting of small peptide molecules. The mean molecular weight of Bovine Collagen Peptide is around 1000 DAL. Such small molecular weight can be 100% absorbed by human body. Our products feature easy absorption, high protein content, high HYP content, low ash ingredient and low heavy metal content. The microorganism control of collagen peptide has been a difficult problem during the production and packing. In order to get a short-term benefit and save the investment or due to technological reasons, most of the producers take the shortcuts, for example, to add chemical agents, drugs into the product or sterilize it by radiation, to reach the requested standards for controlling microorganism. A direct consequence resulted from such methods increases the risk of pollution for the product, which should be healthy and without any pollution. Also few producers perhaps have to adopt sterilization by high temperature, but it affects the color of collagen greatly and causes a yellow, yellowish or yellowish brown. This is a big problem which is unable to be solved for many producers.Item Standard ApperanceWhitish or yellowishOdourOdourlessAverage molecular weight (DAL)≤1500Protein Content(%)
