Outline of Final Research Achievements

Single collagen fibril was fabricated from collagen water solute using electrochemically alignment method. The fibril was hold between one pair of probes applied mechanical load to estimate characteristics of mechanical and piezoelectric properties.
Thin collagen sheet which is liquid crystal phase was obtained in a 30μm gap between a pair of glass slide. The expected thickness of dried sheet would be sub-μm scale.
