Silk cocoon (Bombyx mori): multi-layer structure and mechanical properties.
Bombyx mori cocoon is a natural composite made of silk fibre with a distinctive multi-layer structure that provides mechanical protection for its biological functions. Here we investigate the components, structure and mechanical properties of cocoon layers, and quantify the contributions of the multi-layer structure to the mechanical properties of cocoon. A better understanding of the multi-lay...
متن کاملThe silk proteins, sericin and fibroin in silkworm, Bombyx mori
The domesticated silkworm, Bombyx mori Linn., a lepidopteran molecular model and an important economic insect that are emerging as an ideal molecular genetic resource for solving a broad range of biological problems. The silkworm, B. mori produces massive amount of silk proteins during the final stage of larval development. These proteins are stored in the middle silk gland and they are dischar...
متن کاملThe extraction of fibroin protein from Bombyx mori silk cocoon: Optimization of process parameters
Optimization of protein extraction using silk cocoon was carried out by the design of experiment (DOE) to obtain the response surface methodology ( RSM ). Box-Behnken rotatable design was used to create an experimental program to provide data to model the effects of various factors on protein extraction efficiency. The variables chosen were sodium carbonate concentration ( 1 X ), Lithum bromide...

متن کاملPreparation of gel film from Bombyx mori silk sericin and its characterization as a wound dressing.
Sericin is a highly hydrophilic protein family acting as the glue in Bombyx mori silk. In order to apply sericin as a wound dressing, a novel sericin film named gel film was prepared by a simple process without using any chemical modifications: sericin solution was gelled with ethanol into a sheet shape and then dried. Infrared analysis revealed that the sericin gel film contained water-stable ...
