Abstract
Further progress in regenerative medicine and bioengineering highly depends on the development of 3D polymeric scaffolds with active biological properties. The most attention is paid to natural extracellular matrix components, primarily collagen. Herein, nonwoven nanofiber materials with various degrees of collagen denaturation and fiber diameters 250-500 nm were produced by electrospinning, stabilized by genipin, and characterized in detail. Collagen denaturation has been confirmed using DSC and FTIR analysis. The comparative study of collagen and gelatin nonwoven materials (NWM) revealed only minor differences in their biocompatibility with skin fibroblasts and keratinocytes in vitro. In long-term subcutaneous implantation study, the inflammation was less evident on collagen than on gelatin NWM. Remarkably, the pronounced calcification was revealed in the collagen NWM only. The results obtained can be useful in terms of improving the electrospinning technology of collagen from aqueous solutions, as well as emphasize the importance of long-term study to ensure proper implementation of the material, taking into account the ability of collagen to provoke calcification.

Abstract
The growing interest to the use of collagen films for biomedical applications motivates the analysis of their fracture behaviour in different environments. Studies revealed the decreased mechanical strength and stiffness as well as increased plasticity in water compared to collagen specimens tested in air. However, the fracture behaviour of pure collagen films in both air and water has not been reported so far. In this paper, the entire process of mode-I loading of single-edge notched tension (SENT) specimens was recorded and analysed. In case of in-air (dry) specimens, cracks propagated rapidly in a brittle fashion while large plastic deformations were observed in aqua prior to failure due to crack opening and a blunting mechanism in wet specimens. The fracture-toughness parameters for pure collagen in air and in aqua were estimated using linear-elastic (KI and GI) and elasto-plastic (JI) fracture-mechanics approaches, respectively, following the force-displacement response and deformational behaviour. GIC and JI were 1365 ± 112 J/m2 and 2500 ± 440 J/m2, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the structural changes linked to collagen fibrils in the crack-tip area and the fracture surface. For in-air specimens, the former mostly exhibited extrinsic toughening (usually at micro scale) acting behind the crack-tip, while in-aqua intrinsic toughening acting ahead of a crack tip was found. Fractography of in-air specimens showed no occurrence of voids while multiple micro-voids were found for in-aqua specimens. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The fracture toughness and crack propagation of both mineralised (bone, dentine) and non-mineralised (skin) tissues has been extensively investigated over the past decades. Though these tissues are rich in collagen, the fracture properties of pure collagen have not been quantified yet at macroscale. Considering the applications of collagen films in tissue regeneration, it is essential to perform investigations of their fracture behaviour in both dry and wet conditions. Determining the effect of environment on the fracture behaviour of collagen and understanding its toughening mechanism are essential for prevention of failures during application. Moreover, this would give an insight for fabrication of tougher collagen-based biomaterials for biomedical uses.

Abstract
Fish collagen has higher biocompatibility and lower immunogenicity than terrestrial collagen, and is currently one of the important raw materials for preparing biological materials. In this study, PEO was used as a spinning aid to prepare fish skin collagen-PCL nanofiber membranes by electrospinning, and the process was optimized to get smooth nanofibers. The morphological and mechanical properties of collagen-PCL nanofiber membranes were assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The changes in chemical composition due to the incorporation of collagen into PCL and PEO were determined by Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The biocompatibility of the collagen-PCL nanofiber membranes was evaluated in vitro in cultures of mouse fibroblasts and in vivo by subcutaneous implantation studies in rats. It was found that the diameter of the spun fibers became fine and smooth when the ratio of the collagen/PCL increased. The finally obtained nanofiber had good mechanical strength, porosity, and hydrophilicity, and could promote cell adhesion and proliferation. The FC-PCL nanofiber membrane prepared by this route opens a new way to prepare fish collagen biomaterials with electrospinning.
