Abstract
The present invention is a process for degreasing bone for the manufacture of gelatin. A lipase solution at a concentration of greater than 0.1 ppm is added to a collagen containing material and treated for a time sufficient to solubilize the fat contained in the collagen containing material to produce degreased collagen containing material with a fat content of less than 1 weight percent.
