BioLab Holdings, which is a Mesa medical manufacturer specializing in wound healing and wound care products, is forging a partnership and collaboration agreement with Real Collagen GmbH, a German biotechnology company.
Real Collagen GmbH specializes in the manufacturing of fish collagen for treating medical conditions including chronic wounds, according to a press release.
Real Collagen GmbH possesses over 15 years of experience developing and producing raw hydrogel material containing fish collagen. Its unique method of obtaining collagen, combined with high-quality fish skin, results in collagen material with valuable properties.
“Through this agreement with Real Collagen, we establish a partnership for the development of novel products with a group that shares our values and vision, but most importantly our passion for patient care,” said Dr. Carlos Encinas, chief science officer at BioLab.
During production of the collagen, a catalyzed hydration process is used to obtain native tropocollagen from fish skin, preserving its triple helix structure and properties.
“Biolab Holding’s investment into Real Collagen signifies our continued commitment to helping patients heal from chronic and acute wounds,” said BioLab President Jaime Leija. “We understand the importance of providing valuable resources to medical providers across the world and intend to leverage the collagen produced by Real Collagen in a multitude of wound care solutions, including our proprietary technology, Dermistat.”
BioLab officials say they look forward to providing additional updates on the wound products made in partnership with Real Collagen.
“At Real Collagen, we are dedicated to producing high-quality raw fish collagen and we’re proud to partner with BioLab Holdings, Inc.,” said Real Collagen CEO Dr. Jan Lorenz. “By combining our expertise in fish collagen technology with BioLab’s commitment to patient-centered products, we are confident that this collaboration will lead to groundbreaking advancements in wound healing. Together, we strive to provide medical professionals with superior solutions to improve patient outcomes worldwide.”
