The invention by Manoj Jain (Kollagen Technology Products) Medifil II collagen particles provides an improved process for controlling the absorbency and other properties of collagen flakes. The process comprises using freeze-dried bovine collagen material and heating the freeze dried collagen material to a predetermined temperature range between 80 C. and 200 C. for a selected period of time. The collagen flakes will have an improved absorbency, density, porosity, and color. The porosity, absorbency, density and color of the collagen is selectively dependent upon the time and temperature used to heat the collagen flakes. The absorption of the collagen material is selected to be between two to twenty times the weight of the product, and the density of the collagen material is selected to be between 0.1 g/cc to 1.0 g/cc. The collagen flakes are ground into a powder after heating, for use as a wound dressing for moderate to high exudating wounds.
