摘要

A hydrolyzed collagen dough produced from bovine collagen and methods for producing the collagen dough from bovine hides is provided. The collagen dough comprises water, bovine collagen, sodium benzoate and hydrochloric acid. To produce the collagen dough, the corium layer is separated from bovine hides and treated.
