## Abstract A natural compound, aglycone geniposidic acid (aGSA), originated from the fruits of __Gardenia jasminoides__ ELLIS was used for the fixation of collagenous tissues. The presumed crosslinking reaction mechanism of collagenous tissues with aGSA was inferred by reacting aGSA with a bifunct
