Collagen is a protein made of three identical polypeptides composed primarily of α helix structure. The α helix is an example of a (3) secondary structure stabilized by hydrogen bonds.

Collagen is a protein found in the human body in bones, tissues, skin, etc. It is very essential for the body as it increases the muscle mass, prevents the bone loss, relieves joint pain, and improves skin health. The most important properties of collagen are its rigidity and resistance to stretching.

Hydrogen bonds are the non-covalent bonds that are a most important part of various chemical structures. These are one of the strongest bonds. The hydrogen atom (electropositive) of one molecule is attached to the electronegative atom of the other molecule that could be fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.

You are unable to collect capillary blood from the finger of a child who has cold hands that appear bluish. What term is used to
HACTEHA [7]

Cyanotic is the term used to describe the colour of the child's skin in the documentation of failure to collect a specimen.

Cyanosis is characterized by a shift in the colour of human tissues to a bluish-purple tone. This colour change occurs as a consequence of reduced levels of oxygen being attached to the haemoglobin in the RBCs of the capillary bed. The lips, mucous membranes, nail beds, and ear lobes are among the most common areas on the body to exhibit cyanosis as these areas have thinner layers of skin than other parts of the body. In addition to cyanosis, a bluish discolouration of the skin tissue can be caused due to the consumption of food products with blue or purple dyes.
