Article Synopsis
- Electrochemically aligned collagen (ELAC) threads show promise in biohybrid robotics, requiring careful adjustment of their mechanical and geometric properties for effective muscle actuation.
- The study explores how varying isoelectric focusing (IF) parameters—such as duration, voltage, and collagen concentration—significantly impacts the resulting ELAC properties.
- By optimizing these parameters, researchers can create ELAC threads with customizable tensile strength and cross-sectional area, ranging from 198 to 758 MPa in tensile modulus, enhancing their functionality for tissue engineering applications.
