Clinical Outcomes of Silk Patch in Acute Tympanic Membrane Perforation [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2015 ObjectivesThe silk patch is a thin transparent patch that is produced from silk fibroin. In this study, we investigated the treatment effects of the silk patch in patients with traumatic tympanic membrane perforation (TTMP).MethodsThe closure rate ...

The preparation of insoluble fibroin films induced by degummed fibroin or fibroin microspheres
Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2004 Blending degummed fibroin (DF) or insoluble fibroin microspheres with concentrated fibroin solution, the insoluble films were obtained through drying the solution at 40-45 degrees C. The conformation of silk fibroin films was analyzed by infrared spectrum and X-ray diffractometry.

Leucine-rich fibroin gene of the Japanese wild silkmoth, Rhodinia fugax (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)
European Journal of Entomology, 2008 We cloned and characterized a partial fibroin gene of Rhodinia fugax (Saturniidae). The gene encodes a fibroin consisting mainly of orderly arranged repeats, each of which is divided into a polyalanine and a nonpolyalanine block, similar to the fibroins ...

Comparative proteome analysis of multi-layer cocoon of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Bombyx mori cocoon has a multi-layer structure that provides optimal protection for silkworm pupa. Research on the mechanical properties of the multi-layer structure revealed structure-property relationships of the cocoon.

A silk composite fiber reinforced by telechelic-type polyalanine and its strengthening mechanism [PDF]
, 2022 Antiparallel β-sheets play a key role in determining the physical properties of fibroins, e.g., degradation and mechanical properties, and are typically formed by poly(A) motifs from spider dragline silks and GAGAGS motifs from Bombyx mori silkworm silks.
