Scientists Are Transforming the Keratin of Sheep Wool Into a Scaffold Capable of Helping Bone Regeneration: in Animals, the Agricultural Residue Generated Regenerated Bone with a More Natural Structure than Collagen.
Researchers at King’s College in London developed keratin-based membranes that outperformed conventional materials in animal models in structural organization.The use of this abundant, low-cost protein opens up a sustainable alternative to the costly medical inputs derived from bovine collagen.
