Abstract:
:The spectrum of aldimine cross-link bonds of skin collagen is dependent on the localization of the examined material. In correlation to this, there is no synchronous behaviour of cross-linkage in the aging process. The age-dependent decrease of HLNL and the increase of DHLNL in the collagen of tail tendon is only unsubstantially found in the skin of neck. It is supposed that environmental conditions or bodily activity in an area might effect the cross-link bonds of collagen.
