title: A cell culture substrate obtained from heat-fused collagen.
abstract: Coverslips coated with rat-tail collagen dried at 37 degrees C were placed in a hot-air sterilizing oven at 160 degrees C for 2 h. The resulting transparent sterile film was found to be a useful multipurpose substrate for cell culture and for subsequent histological sectioning.
