Electrospinning of core shell nanofibers using amine modified sericins.
Scientific reports 20251201 1
In this study as a renewable resorce, silk sericin (SS), a protein surrounding fibroin fibers in silk, was chemically modified with various amines (e.g., methylamine, butylamine) to improve its functional properties. These modifications, which included nucleophilic substitution reactions, improved its thermal stability, mechanical strength, and biological activity by substituting primary amine groups in place of hydroxyl ions in the structure. Modified SS (M-SS) was then used to produce nanofibe ...[more]
