Directory Guidance on Silk Protein
Basic Info
Silk Protein, also known as fibroin, is a natural high-molecular protein extracted from silk. It is mainly secreted by the silk glands of the silkworm (Bombyx mori) and is the main component of silk fiber. Silk protein is composed of 18 amino acids, among which glycine, alanine and serine are high in content. This unique amino acid composition gives silk protein excellent biocompatibility, degradability and mechanical properties.
From the chemical structure point of view, silk protein contains hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions, which makes it have good film-forming, moisture retention and adsorption properties. In addition, silk protein is rich in active groups and is easy to be chemically modified and functionalized. Due to its excellent physical and chemical properties and biological characteristics, silk protein is widely used in biomedicine, cosmetics, food science and textile industry, such as wound dressings, drug carriers, skin care additives and functional fiber materials. As a green and environmentally friendly natural raw material, silk protein shows great application potential in modern science and technology and industry.
Product Introduction
1. Silk Protein isoelectric point and amphoteric properties Silk protein contains amino and carboxyl groups that can interact and form bipolar ions, and has amphoteric characteristics. Silk protein is positive in solutions of lower pH, but negative in those with higher pH. The isoelectric points of silk proteins are: 3.8-4.5.
2. Silk protein colloidal properties A polymer compound, silk protein has a high molecular mass and a particle size of 1 to 100nm. The particle size falls within the colloidal range, which explains the unique properties of sol in terms of dialysis and coagulation.
3. Silk protein denaturation The properties of silk proteins are often altered by external factors such as physical or chemical influences, but the primary structure is not affected. The covalent bond of the peptide is not broken but the conformation of the molecule changes. This causes changes in properties. The main manifestations are changes in chemical and physical properties, and a loss of biological activity. Its most obvious manifestation is a decrease in its solubility. This will reduce the value of the product. Silk Protein is denaturized by temperature, pH and organic solvents.
4. Silk Protein Swelling and Dissolution Sericin, a polymer, will absorb liquid and automatically swell when it comes into contact with liquids. It can dissolve after infinite swelling. Silk protein is not soluble in water. It can swell, but it cannot dissolve. Silk Protein, however, can dissolve when heated. Sericin is a protein that is able to dissolve in hot water.

Biomedical field
Silk protein has good biocompatibility, degradability and low immunogenicity, and is often used to prepare medical dressings, surgical sutures and tissue engineering scaffolds. Its porous structure and controllable degradation properties make it an ideal drug carrier for sustained-release drug delivery systems. In addition, silk protein can also be used to repair skin damage and promote cell growth, and has important potential in regenerative medicine.
Cosmetic field
Silk protein is rich in hydrophilic amino acids, has excellent moisturizing and film-forming properties, can effectively lock in moisture and improve skin elasticity. Therefore, it is often added to skin care products, facial masks and hair care products to repair damaged hair, enhance skin barrier function, and provide anti-aging and antioxidant effects.
Food science field
Silk protein is used as a functional food additive due to its high nutritional value and safety. It can be used as a protein supplement to enhance the nutritional content of food. At the same time, due to its film-forming and stability, it can also be used in the development of food packaging materials to extend the shelf life of food.
Textile industry sector
Silk protein is used to create high-performance fibers such as antibacterial fibres, intelligent thermoregulating fibers etc. The softness and excellent mechanical properties of silk protein make it a great raw material for high-end fabrics. It is widely used in clothing and home textiles.
Environmentally friendly materials
Silk protein, which is both biodegradable, and environmentally friendly, can be used to develop biodegradable films, plastics, and coatings. This reduces the environmental pollution that comes from petroleum-based materials.
