Silk‐Fabric Reinforced Silk for Artificial Bones
Advanced MaterialsAbstractBone implants for different body parts require varying mechanical properties, dimensions, and biodegradability rates. Currently, it is still challenging to produce artificial bones with perfect compatibility with human bones. In this study, a silk‐fabric reinforced silk material (SFS) composed of pure silk with exceptional biocompatibility ...

Silk fibroin materials can be used as various kinds of biomedical materials. Here, we report a comparative study of silk-silk blend materials using thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy. Four groups of silk-silk blend films were fabricated from aqueous solutions by blending Chinese Bombyx mori (Mori) with Indian Antheraea mylitta (Tussah) silk ...

Abstract The silks of the large cocoons of saturniid moths range in colour from pale to dark brown. They are invariably accompanied by phenolic compounds. The nature of these phenols and their interaction with silk form the subject of this paper. Silk, though fluid when secreted, dries out almost instantly.

Publisher Summary Fibroins are regarded as protein filaments produced by certain species belonging to the classes Insecta (insects) and Arachnida (spiders, etc.). In the class Insecta, many species produce long silken filaments to form substantial cocoons in which they pupate. The classic example is the silkworm of commerce Bombyx mori (B.
