Chondrosia reniformis is a collagen-rich marine sponge that considered sustainable and viable option for producing an alternative to mammalian-origin collagens. However, there lack of knowledge regarding the properties collagen isolated from different parts, namely outer region, or cortex, (ectosome) inner region (choanosome), how it affects development biomaterials. In this study, brief histological analysis focusing on C. spatial distribution comprehensive comparative between ectosome...
To support the successful application of sponges for water purification and collagen production, we evaluated effect depth on sponge morphology, growth, physiology, functioning. Specimens Eastern Mediterranean populations Chondrosia reniformis (Nardo, 1847) (Demospongiae, Chondrosiida, Chondrosiidae) were reciprocally transplanted between 5 20 m within Kaş-Kekova Marine Reserve Area. Control at had fewer but larger oscula than their conspecifics m, a significant inverse relationship osculum...
