The present invention relates to a highly oriented collagen fibril bundle having a length in a major axis direction of 1 m or more.

Highly oriented collagen fibril bundle and method of producing same

The purpose of the present invention is to provide an injectable sol into a body, suited for delivery through a catheter, and usable for tissue perforation closure, ulcer protection, or vascular embolization. Provided are a sol for tissue perforation closure, a sol for ulcer protection, and a sol for vascular embolization, each containing from 0.6 mass % to 3 mass % of a collagen, water, from 200 mM to 330 mM sodium chloride, and a buffer and having a pH from 6.0 to 9.0.

Sol for tissue perforation closure, ulcer protection, and vascular embolization

Object of the present invention is to provide a safe sol for submucosal local injection which gels and creates a mucosal elevation having a high retention rate of mucosal elevation height when locally injected into a digestive submucosa. Provided is a sol for submucosal local injection containing from 0.2 mass % to 1.2 mass % of a collagen, water, a buffer, and from 200 mM to 420 mM sodium chloride.

Collagen sol for submucosal local injection

A gelatin or a chemically modified product thereof contains 10 to 50% by mass of a high-molecular weight component, and a low-molecular weight component in such an amount that a value obtained by subtracting a low-molecular weight component content from a high-molecular weight component content is greater than or equal to 0% by mass.

Gelatin, chemically modified product thereof, aqueous composition and medical laminate containing same, production method for medical laminate, and cell sheet isolation method
