Abstract

Marine collagen, derived from marine sources such as fish skin, scales, and bones, has garnered increasing attention in the field of wound healing due to its unique properties and versatile applications. Marine collagen offers several advantages over mammalian-derived collagen, including abundant availability, lower risk of disease transmission, and superior biocompatibility. Its resemblance to human collagen, particularly type I collagen, makes it an ideal candidate for promoting tissue regeneration and wound closure. This abstract presents a comprehensive review of the current state of research on marine collagen as a bioactive material for wound healing.
