|
|
Abstract Abstract: The main collagens in skin are type I and III. In this research, total collagens were separated from rat skin by enzymatic digest and acetum methods. The collagens were denatured at 60℃ and digested with trypsin. Characteristic peptides typical for collagen type I and III were identified with high performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. The relative abundance of collagen type I/III was determined according to characteristic peptides. The result indicated that the content of collagen type III in rat skin decreased with growth stage, and content of collagen type I increased slightly with growth stage, the ratio of collagen type I/III keep stable after 8 weeks.
