Collagen is a protein made up of amino-acids, which are in turn built of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. Collagen contains specific amino acids â Glycine, Proline, Hydroxyproline and Arginine. Collagen makes up approximately 30% of the proteins within the body.ollagen microscopically occurs in elongated fibrils. It is mostly found in fibrous tissues such as tendon, ligament and skin, and is also abundant in cornea, bone, blood vessels, cartilage, intervertebral disc and the digestive tract. In muscle tissue, collagen serves as a major component of endomysium.
MRSA can live for up to 7 months on dust. MRSA can live for up to 8 weeks on a mop head. MRSA can live for up to 9 weeks on a cotton towel. MRSA can live for up to 203 days (over 6 moths) on a blanket. MRSA can live on the skin of otherwise healthy individuals, with no symptoms indefinitely.
