## Abstract The aggregation of native acid‐soluble collagen (N‐ASC) and of pronase‐treated acid soluble collagen (P‐ASC) was examined in solution under conditions which varied from those of minimum collagen‐collagen interaction to those leading to incipient fiber formation. Molecular weights and we
This study shows how collagen molecules are readily damaged by y-radiation at dosages commonly used for sterilizing biomedical products. At 1 Mrad, while the reported effectiveness of the radiation at such a low dosage to completely sterilize a material is questionable, less damage was caused to the
## Experimental Chrome-tanned collagen fibers (sheep submucosa) prepared by Ethicon Inc. were treated by either "first cycle" or "reversible cycle" denaturation procedures.
