Molecular level detection and localization of mechanical damage in collagen enabled by collagen hybridizing peptides

Mechanical injury to connective tissue causes changes in collagen structure and material behaviour, but the role and mechanisms of molecular damage have not been established. In the case of mechanical subfailure damage, no apparent macroscale damage can be detected, yet this damage initiates and pot...
