    Description

    Seals accumulate large amount of fat in the subcutaneous adipose tissue, which undergoes massive changes during their life cycle. This study aims to describe the collagen distribution differences between human gluteofemoral subcutaneous fat and grey seal blubber.

    The data were collected as part of the PhD project "Characterising fat tissue structure and function in response to hypoxia in grey seals, an animal model of extreme fat deposition and mobilisation, using novel in vivo and in vitro approaches".

    This dataset is currently embargoed.
