Abstract
Abstract A biological matrix is provided comprising a non-immunogenic atelopeptide collagen. The biological matrix is useful as a closure for gaping wounds since it allows angiogenesis and fibroplasia while being incorporated into the wound be re-epithelialization. In a medical treatment a gaping wound is packed with the atelopeptide collagen and kept sterile while the epidermal layer migrates over the matrix and incorporates it into the normal tissue.
