Introduction In the realm of cell culture, Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) has long been the gold standard, providing essential nutrients and growth factors for cell proliferation. However, ethical concerns, batch variability, and high costs have spurred the search for alternatives like sericin, a silk-derived protein. This blog explores sericin’s potential as a cell culture media,…
Introduction to 3D Bioprinting 3D bioprinting is a revolutionary technology that enables the fabrication of functional, biological replicas of naturally occurring body parts, such as organs. This process involves using cellular bio-inks, which are composed of living cells and biocompatible materials, to artificially grow organs in a lab setting . Sericin and Fibroin are playing…
Silk proteins, particularly sericin and fibroin, are revolutionizing the cosmetics industry by significantly enhancing the sensory attributes of skincare and haircare products. These proteins offer a unique combination of luxurious texture, hydration, and biocompatibility, making them highly desirable in cosmetic formulations. Why Does Silk Enhance Sensory Experience? Silk proteins, derived from the cocoons of the Bombyx…
Sericin, a protein derived from silkworm cocoons, has garnered significant attention in biomedical research due to its unique properties. This blog post delves into the in vivo effects of sericin, presenting both positive and negative findings from various studies. Wound Healing and Skin Health Positive Effects: Sericin has shown promising results in wound healing and…
Silk Fibroin, the core structural protein in silk, is a product of the Bombyx mori (silkworm). This biopolymer is composed of light and heavy chains, held together by disulfide bonds. The repetitive sequences of amino acids in its structure, mainly glycine, alanine, and serine, contribute to its unique properties such as robustness, elasticity, and biocompatibility….
