It is suggested that osteogenesis in cultured MSC can be modulated by scaffold properties and flow environment.
Determining Beta-Sheet Crystallinity in Fibrous Proteins by Thermal Analysis and Infrared Spectroscopy
We report a study of self-assembled beta-pleated sheets in B. mori silk fibroin films using thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy. B. mori silk fibroin may stand as an exemplar of fibrous…
Native-sized recombinant spider silk protein produced in metabolically engineered Escherichia coli results in a strong fiber
