Abstract

Fibers including a polyurethane or a protein polyurethane alloy. The fibers include a core defined by the polyurethane or the protein polyurethane alloy. The fibers including a protein polyurethane alloy include a protein dissolved within a polyurethane. In some embodiments, the fibers can be made by wet spinning a blended mixture of the polyurethane or protein polyurethane alloy and an organic solvent. In alternative embodiments, the fibers can be made by wet spinning a blended mixture of the polyurethane or protein polyurethane alloy and an aqueous polyethylene oxide solution.

Abstract

A biofabricated material containing a network of crosslinked collagen fibrils is disclosed. This material is composed of collagen which is also a major component of natural leather and is produced by a process of fibrillation of collagen molecules into fibrils, crosslinking the fibrils and lubricating the crosslinked fibrils. Unlike natural leathers, this biofabricated material exhibits non-anisotropic (not directionally dependent) physical properties, for example, a sheet of biofabricated material can have substantially the same elasticity or tensile strength when stretched or stressed in different directions. Unlike natural leather, it has a uniform texture that facilitates uniform uptake of dyes and coatings. Aesthetically, it produces a uniform and consistent grain for ease of manufacturability. It can have substantially identical grain, texture and other aesthetic properties on both sides distinct from natural leather where the grain increases from one side (e.g., distal surface) to the other (proximal inner layers).

The secondary component may be a porous material, such as a sheet of paper, cellulose, or fabric that has been coated or otherwise contacted with the biofabricated material. The biofabricated material comprises a uniform network of crosslinked collagen fibrils and provides strength, elasticity and an aesthetic appearance to the composite material.

Abstract

A biofabricated material containing a network of crosslinked collagen fibrils is disclosed. This material is composed of collagen which is also a major component of natural leather and is produced by a process of fibrillation of collagen molecules into fibrils, crosslinking the fibrils and lubricating the crosslinked fibrils. Unlike natural leathers, this biofabricated material exhibits non-anisotropic (not directionally dependent) physical properties, for example, a sheet of biofabricated material can have substantially the same elasticity or tensile strength when stretched or stressed in different directions. Unlike natural leather, it has a uniform texture that facilitates uniform uptake of dyes and coatings. Aesthetically, it produces a uniform and consistent grain for ease of manufacturability. It can have substantially identical grain, texture and other aesthetic properties on both sides distinct from natural leather where the grain increases from one side (e.g., distal surface) to the other (proximal inner layers).

Abstract

A biofabricated material comprising a network of crosslinked collagen fibrils produced from recombinant collagen that contains substantially no 3-hydroxyproline residues is disclosed.

Abstract

Described herein is a method for producing a biofabricated material from collagen or collagen-like proteins. The collagen or collagen-like proteins are isolated from animal sources or produced by recombinant DNA techniques or by chemical synthesis. The collagen or collagen-like proteins are fibrillated, crosslinked, dehydrated and lubricated thus forming the biofabricated material having a substantially uniform network of collagen fibrils.

Abstract

A biofabricated material containing a network of crosslinked collagen fibrils is disclosed. This material is composed of collagen which is also a major component of natural leather and is produced by a process of fibrillation of collagen molecules into fibrils, crosslinking the fibrils and lubricating the crosslinked fibrils. Unlike natural leathers, this biofabricated material exhibits non-anisotropic (not directionally dependent) physical properties, for example, a sheet of biofabricated material can have substantially the same elasticity or tensile strength when stretched or stressed in different directions. Unlike natural leather, it has a uniform texture that facilitates uniform uptake of dyes and coatings. Aesthetically, it produces a uniform and consistent grain for ease of manufacturability. It can have substantially identical grain, texture and other aesthetic properties on both sides distinct from natural leather where the grain increases from one side (e.g., distal surface) to the other (proximal inner layers).

Abstract

Reinforced engineered biomaterials, and methods of making them, may be useful to form engineered leathers. Such engineered hides may be reinforced by encapsulating, and/or cross-linking to, a mesh and/or scaffold material, which may be a synthetic polymeric material. The resulting hide may include a stratified structure in which the mesh is held between layers of collagen-dense regions, where the collagen-dense regions overlaying the mesh following the contour of the mesh. Alternatively or additionally, the resulting hide may be a composite of a fibrous matrix that has been tanned to allow crosslinking of the fibrous matrix to the collagen formed by cultured cells. These engineered leathers may be referred to as fiber-reinforced biological tissue composites. The resulting materials may have superior durability and flexibility compared to other engineered materials and native leather, while retaining the look and feel of native leather.

Abstract

Engineered animal skin, hide, and leather comprising a plurality of layers of collagen formed by cultured collagen-producing cells. Layers may be formed by cultured collagen-producing cells that are grown to confluence to form a sheet of collagen, the sheets are treated to prevent contractions, e.g., by decellularizing them with ethanol, and then the sheets are stacked and adhered together by seeding the region between the them with additional collagen-forming cells. Additional filler material may be added between the layers, such as reconstituted collagen or collagen pulp. Multiple layers may be stacked and adhered in this manner. Finally, the sheets may be treated to form leather, by modifying the collagen using a tanning (or a modified tanning) process.
