Macroporous Silk Fibroin Cryogels

open access: yesBiomacromolecules, 2013
Silk fibroin cryogels with remarkable properties were obtained from frozen fibroin solutions (4.2-12.6%) at subzero temperatures between -5 and -22 °C. This was achieved by the addition of ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE) into the cryogelation system.

Preparation of Silk Fibroin Nanoparticles and Enzyme-Entrapped Silk Fibroin Nanoparticles [PDF]

open access: yesBIO-PROTOCOL, 2018
After silk fiber is degummed in boiling 0.2% Na2CO3 solution, the degummed fibroin fiber could be dissolved in highly concentrated neutral salts such as CaCl2. The partially degraded polypeptides of silk fibroin, commonly called as regenerated liquid silk, could be obtained via water dialysis.
