    Comparison of the Physical Properties and in vivo Bioactivities of Flatwise-Spun Silk Mats and Cocoon-Derived Silk Mats for Guided Bone Regeneration

    The main flaw of silkworm cocoon originated membranes for guided bone regeneration (GBR) techniques is that the maximum size of the membrane is determined by the size of the cocoon. Flatwise-spun silk does not...

    In vivo bone regeneration ability of different layers of natural silk cocoon processed using an eco-friendly method

    Silk cocoons are primarily composed of the proteins fibroin and sericin. To achieve guided bone regeneration (GBR), we have developed a simple and ecofriendly processing technique to obtain microperforated thi...
