...protein from cowhide and a complex carbohydrate derived from shark cartilage. When mixed with an acidic solution, the two ingredients become short white fibers. Freeze-dried and vacuum treated to remove moisture, the fibers form a light and highly porous white sheet of material, which is placed in an oven at a high temperature. The topmost layer, equivalent to the epidermis, is made by bonding a viscous plastic onto the cowhide-shark sheet. The completed skin is then freeze-dried and stored in sterile, closed containers at room temperature...
