Abstract

Marine biopolymers like collagens, gelatins, keratins (keratin-like proteins), and elastins (elastin-like proteins) have been investigated during the last decade as potentially approvable, manufacturable, highly reproducible, approvable, and affordable biological materials. The development of biocompatible composites and vehicles of marine biopolymer origin for growth, retention, delivery, and differentiation of stem cells is of crucial importance for regenerative medicine.
