Collagen Native Type 2 Manufacturing

If you have been following us, we recently posted on the Made in America Blog and highlighted why buying products that are made in America today is a smart choice.  Today we would like to highlight the background of SBEDGE® Supplement’s Collagen Native Type 2 and lay out our experience and qualifications.

History

 Sioux Biochemical started in 1995 with the isolation of proteins and hormones for research.  This included ovine, bovine and porcine Follicle Stimulating hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Growth Hormone (GH), Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH), Prolactin (Luteotropic Hormone), and Thyroid Stimulating hormone (TSH).

This also included enzymes and research proteins such as Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH), Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG), Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotropin (PMSG; eCG), Secretin and chogcrystokinin, Trypsin, and Chymotrypsin. 

 Additionally, we have…

·         Developed a process for the extraction and purification of Chondroitin Sulfate (CS) from bovine trachea.  This led to the creation of a secondary sister company called Sioux Pharm which was dedicated to the production of CS.

·         Worked with several clients on the development of extraction of proteins from GMO crops, such as Corn and Rice.  The companies we worked with created a GMO crop with a protein of interest inserted into the genetics of the crop.  The protein(s) were difficult to attain from other methods.  Extraction, purification and stabilizing of the proteins were often required.

·         Developed a process for the manufacture of Biodiesel from sources such as corn oil and other agricultural/plant sources.  This project lasted for 3 years until the sourcing of feed stock became too competitive to continue, but Sioux Bio was considered to have some of the highest quality Bio Diesel available.

Finally, and most recently Sioux Bio has worked on the isolation of an undenatured type 2 collagen from bovine source for the supplement market that it branded under SBEDGE® Supplements name.

Process

Our process starts with raw bovine material that comes 100% from USDA-inspected facilities right here in the United States.  Then our gentle extraction process allows our collagen to retain the characteristics of the Full Molecule in its natural form.  This is important since it becomes bio-active in nature allowing your body to process it naturally, which then triggers other important biological processes in your body.
