Phenyl alkyls and citronellyl glucosides from the silk cocoons of Bombyx mori L
Silk cocoons, produced by Bombyx mori L. (Bombicidae) are used to treat heart palpitation, cough, asthma and catarrh. Phytochemical investigation of the cocoons led to the isolation of alkyl substituted dioxymethylene benzene derivatives and two citronellyl glucosides for the first time characterized as n-pentanyl-3,4-(dioxymethylene) benzene (1), n-pentanyl-2,3-dioxymethylene-4-hydroxybenzene ...
متن کاملPreparation of Porous Scaffolds from Silk Fibroin Extracted from the Silk Gland of Bombyx mori (B. mori)
In order to use a simple and ecofriendly method to prepare porous silk scaffolds, aqueous silk fibroin solution (ASF) was extracted from silk gland of 7-day-old fifth instar larvae of Bombyx mori (B. mori). SDS-page analysis indicated that the obtained fibroin had a molecular weight higher than 200 kDa. The fabrication of porous scaffolds from ASF was achieved by using the freeze-drying method....
متن کاملUltrasound Induced Enhancement of Protein Metabolism and Enzyme Activities in the Silk Gland of Fifth Instar Silkworm, Bombyx mori L
The parameters of protein metabolism, such as the levels of total, soluble proteins and free amino acids and also the activity levels of protease, glutamate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were assayed in the silk gland of the fifth instar larva of silkworm, Bombyx mori, under the impact of ultrasound. In general ultrasound has an elevatory effect on these...
متن کاملFurther development of silk sericin as a biomaterial: comparative investigation of the procedures for its isolation from Bombyx mori silk cocoons
There is significant research dedicated to fibroin and sericin, the two major proteinaceous components of the silk threads produced by the domesticated silkworm, Bombyx mori. While fibroin is accepted as an established biomaterial, sericin (BMSS) has been largely neglected in this respect on the account of a hypothetical allergenic activity. Research over the past decade, including our previous...
متن کاملHoneysuckle flowers extract loaded Bombyx mori silk fibroin films for inducing apoptosis of HeLa cells
This study aimed to prepare silk fibroin (SF) films loaded with honeysuckle flowers extract (HFE) for inducing apoptosis of HeLa cells. We mixed solution of SF and HFE by air-drying for preparing the honeysuckle flowers extract loaded silk fibroin (SFH) films. The physical properties including morphologies, contact angle, roughness, and Z range were characterized. MTS assay and fluorescence mic...
