Sericin is a protein created by Bombyx mori (silkworms) in the production of silk. [1] Silk is a fibre produced by the silkworm in production of its cocoon. It consists mainly of two proteins, fibroin and sericin. Silk consists of 70–80% fibroin and 20–30% sericin; fibroin being the structural center of the silk, and sericin being the gum ...

Silk sericin is a natural polymer produced by silkworm, Bombyx mori, which surrounds and keeps together two fibroin filaments in silk thread used in the cocoon. The recovery and reuse of sericin usually discarded by the textile industry not only minimizes environmental issues but also has a high scientific and commercial value.

2024年10月29日 · Silk sericin, the glue protein binding fibroin fibers together, is present in the Bombyx mori silkworms’ cocoons. In recent years, sericin has gained attention for its wide range of properties and possible opportunities for various applications, as evidenced by the meta-analysis conducted in this review.

Sericin, a silk protein that is usually discarded in large quantities by the sericulture and textile industries during the degumming process of manufacturing silk from silk cocoons, can be explored for its application in food packaging and in other food sectors as a …

丝胶蛋白（sericin；silk glue）是一种 丝胶 状 蛋白质，为 球蛋白。 约占 蚕丝 总重量的20%～30%。 当 蚕 营茧时，丝胶起着 黏合 作用，使两根 单丝 包覆于一体构成茧丝。 含大量 侧链 带 亲水基团 的氨基酸如 丝氨酸 、天冬氨酸等，易溶于水中。 蚕丝中的杂质主要存于丝胶中。 丝胶蛋白（sericin；silk glue）是一种丝胶状蛋白质，为球蛋白。

丝胶是从蚕茧（茧壳、茧衣）和蚕丝中采用生物技术提取的一种纯天然蛋白质。 它含有十八种氨基酸，其中丝氨酸和 天门冬氨酸 的含量最高。 此外人体必需的八种氨基酸齐全。 由于丝胶中含有亲水侧基的氨基酸多达80％左右，使丝胶作为 化妆品原料 具有优异的调湿、保湿功效。 丝胶还有特殊的成膜性，可在附着物上生成丝绸般柔滑、光鲜、富有弹性的薄膜，能使皮肤、头发表面形成保护膜，保持水份，防止对皮肤角质层的损伤，防止紫外线辐射，使皮肤光滑柔嫩，头发柔软增 …

2022年8月1日 · Silk sericin, a natural protein extracted from silkworm cocoons, has been extensively studied and utilized in the biomedical field because of its superior biological activities and controllable chemical-physical properties.

2023年10月1日 · Silk consists of a filament core protein, termed fibroin, and a glue-like coating substance formed of sericin (SER) proteins. This protein is extracted from the silkworm cocoons (particularly Bombyx mori) and is mainly composed of amino acids like glycine, serine, aspartic acid, and threonine.

2014年11月20日 · Here we report the successful fabrication and characterization of a covalently-crosslinked 3D pure sericin hydrogel for delivery of cells and drugs. This hydrogel is injectable, permitting its...

This review summarizes the properties and bioactivities of silk sericin and highlights the latest developments in sericin in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Furthermore, the extended application of sericin in developing flexible electronic devices and 3D …
