| Summary: | Field application of collagen obtained from marine organisms is in wide practice. Moreover, its use could be conditioned depending on the desired purpose and structural characteristics. Therefore, further studies on collagen crosslinking are needed to determine how this may affect the properties of collagen. A spectrophotometric characterization of the collagen found in Octopus vulgaris and Dosidicus gigas arms was carried out. The 1H NMR and fluorometric spectra confirmed the presence of pyridinoline as the main molecule responsible for collagen crosslinking. Using the amino acid profile and 1H NMR spectra, it was determined that the jumbo squid has a relatively high pyridinoline content. The viscosity properties of this collagen were found to exhibit the behaviour of a pseudoplastic fluid. Finally, under the conditions proposed in this study, the degree of crosslinking of the collagen of the octopus and the jumbo squid did not affect the viscosity properties of the protein. |
