1. Collagen, keratin, and fibroin are examples of Albuminoids.

2. This comes from the multilayered, prismlike structure of fibroin, which diffuses light.

3. This suggests no relationship to collagen or silk fibroin but a general similarity to Arthropodins

4. By varying the length of segments of the elastin and fibroin repeating units, the absorption can be greatly varied.

5. As the fibroin is pushed through these glands, it is coated with a gumlike substance called sericin.

6. Albuminoids is the anatomical name given to albuminous substances forming the connective tissues. Typical Albuminoids are gelatin, keratin, elastin, fibroin, spongin and conchiolin.

7. The microstructures of Bombyx mori fibroin and dragline,(Sentencedict) egg-case silk fibers of Araneus Ventricosus spider were studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM).

8. 22 A porous silk fibroin membrane could be prepared through freeze-drying process, with dense top surface, porous bottom surface in low porosity and porous inner portion in high porosity.

9. In this study, a hydrogel Bioadhesive based on silk fibroin (SF) and tannic acid (TA) was combined with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) generated in situ during hydrogel formation to improve its antibacterial abilities
