Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradation of Bombyx mori silk fibroin fibers and films
TL;DR: In this article, the in vitro biodegradation of Bombyx mori silk fibroin was studied by incubating fibers and films with proteolytic enzymes (collagenase type F, α-chymotrypsin type I-S, protease type XXI), for times ranging from 1 to 17 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradable Materials Based on Silk Fibroin and Keratin
TL;DR: The nonlinear trend of the different parameters obtained from FTIR analysis and DSC curves of both SF/keratin systems indicate that when proteins are mixed they do not follow additives rules but are able to establish intermolecular interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Cutinases from Thermobifida cellulosilytica DSM44535 and fusca DSM44342 hydrolyzing poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were successfully cloned and expressed in E.coli BL21-Gold(DE3).
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural changes of silk fibroin membranes induced by immersion in methanol aqueous solutions
TL;DR: In this article, the structural changes of native and regenerated silk fibroin membranes were induced by immersion in water-methanol solutions and examined as a function of immersion time and methanol concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degumming of silk fabric with several proteases
TL;DR: Sericin was completely removed from the warp yarns of the crêpe fabric, while the highly twisted weft yarns still exhibited the presence of sericin deposits within the most internal parts of the close fibre texture.
