Non-equilibrium silk fibroin adhesives.
Regenerated silkworm silk solutions formed metastable, soft-solid-like materials (e-gels) under weak electric fields, displaying interesting mechanical characteristics such as dynamic adhesion and strain stiffening. Raman spectroscopy, in situ electric field dynamic oscillatory rheology and polarized optical microscopy indicated that silk fibroin electrogelation involved intermolecular self-ass...
متن کاملPolyethylene glycol-coated biocompatible surfaces.
Surfaces covered with polyethylene glycol (PEG; HO-(CH(2)-CH(2)-O)(n)-H) have been shown to be biocompatible because PEG's properties yield nonimmunogenicity, nonantigenicity, and protein rejection. To produce a biocompatible surface coating, we have developed a method for grafting PEG onto activated silica films. We first deposited an amorphous silica film by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor dep...
متن کاملSilk Fibroin Spheres Crosslinked by Polyethylene Glycol Diglycidyl Ether for Drug Delivery
Silk fibroin (SF) has been widely investigated in biomedical applications due to its biodegradability and biocompatibility. The objective of this work was to prepare SF spheres for drug delivery application. Drug-loaded SF spheres with and without polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (PEGDE) crosslinking were prepared by a water-in-oil emulsion solvent diffusion method. Blue dextran was used as...
متن کاملSilk Fibroin Based Porous Materials
Silk from the Bombyx mori silkworm is a protein-based fiber. Bombyx mori silk fibroin (SF) is one of the most important candidates for biomedical porous material based on its superior machinability, biocompatibility, biodegradation, bioresorbability, and so on. In this paper, we have reviewed the key features of SF. Moreover we have focused on the morphous, technical processing, and biocompatib...
متن کاملSilk Fibroin-Based Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery
Silk fibroin (SF) is a protein-based biomacromolecule with excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability and low immunogenicity. The development of SF-based nanoparticles for drug delivery have received considerable attention due to high binding capacity for various drugs, controlled drug release properties and mild preparation conditions. By adjusting the particle size, the chemical structure a...
