The effects of different proportions and solid contents on properties of blend films were discussed. The mechanical properties showed that the blend films had preferable moisture permeability and a high strength. The structures of the blend films were investigated by infrared spectrum and X-ray diffraction. The results indicated the occurrence of hydrogen bonds between hydroxyl groups of cellulose and amido groups of fibroin.展开更多
Beyond the commonly known proteins built silk fibres--fibroin and sericin, there are almost 300 bioactive proteins in the silkworm haemolymph.

The aim of this work was to present bioactive compounds obtained from the silk fibre and isolated from the body of this insect, which may be used in medical and pharmacological applications. The most important are bioactive proteins. However, the juvenile stages of mulberry silkworm possess other very valuable active substances.展开更多
