Highly purified Type III collagen, from human placenta

Highly purified Type III collagen, from human placenta (Human Type III collagen, immunization grade) is an immune grade collagen derived from human placenta, 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].
