PSC the figure was 187.2 residues/1000 residues. The total imino acid
content of ASC and PSC from Nibea japonica swim bladders was similar
to the content found in ASC and PSC from Miiuy Croaker (approximately
196.7 and 199.5 residues/1000 residues, respectively) [16], but was
lower than the content found in calf skin collagen (approximately 215
residues/1000 residues), porcine skin collagen (approximately 220 res-
idues/1000 residues), and human collagen type I (approximately 223
residues/1000 residues) [13]. The imino acid content of collagen has
been linked to its thermal stability, which is a critical characteristic for
medical applications. The difference in total imino acid and hydroxypro-
line content may be species-specific and related to the habitat temper-
ature of the species.
