Bioactivity | Highly purified Type XI collagen, from porcine articular cartilage (Porcine Type XI collagen, immunization grade) is an immune grade collagen derived from porcine articular cartilage, which can stimulate the animal's immune system to produce specific antibodies against this collagen. Collagen is also a substrate for hydrolysis by MMPs[1][2]. |
