剪切速率对高浓度再生丝素水溶液构象的影响

对高浓度的再生丝素水溶液（15％～37％）在不同剪切速率下（1000s-1和2000s-1）的构象变化进行了研究，对剪切前后的溶液进行了DSC和Raman对比测试。发现经过剪切，丝素溶液更客易发生从无规线团或α-螺旋向β-折叠构象的转变，且转变的程度随所受剪切速率的增加而提高。而且当丝素浓度低于27％时对剪切不敏感；超过30％时则对剪切敏感。

Cu（Ⅱ） effect on the conformation of regenerated silk fibroin in dilute aqueous solution

Much attention has been paid to the natural mechanism of silkworm spinning due to the impressive mechanical properties of the natural fibers. In this work, we studied the effect of Cu（Ⅱ） ions on the secondary structure of Bombyx mori regenerated silk fibroin （SF） in dilute solution by circular dichroism （CD）. The results indicate that a given amount of Cu（Ⅱ） induces the SF conformational transition from random coil to β-sheet, however, further addition of Cu（Ⅱ） is unfavorable for this conversion. Meanwhile, the conformational changes induced by Cu（Ⅱ） follow a nucleation-dependent aggregation mechanism, which is similar to that found in Prion protein （PrP） denaturation and Aβ-peptide aggregations, leading to the neurodegenerative disease. This work would help one understand further the natural spinning process of silkworm. Additionally, it would be significant for the study of the nervous system diseases, because silk fibroin, extracted in large amounts from Bombyx mori silkworm gland, could be a proper model to study PrP denaturation and Aβ-peptide aggregations.

Tussah Silk Fibroin Porous Scaffolds Prepared with a Mild Self-assembly Process for Controlled Drug Release

Besides excellent biodegradability and biocompatibility,a useful tissue engineering scaffold should provide favorable surface properties,outstanding mechanical strength and controlled drug release property. In this paper,a mild process to prepare porous tussah silk fibroin（ TSF） scaffolds from aqueous solution was described. The n-butanol was used to control the self-assembly of tussah silk. The scaffolds with different TSF concentrations and the same volume showed differences in pore size and distribution. The maximum porosity of the poprepared porous scaffolds was 80% in this paper. And the pore size of the prepared porous scaffolds with different concentrations was between 10μm and 230 μm. X-ray diffraction（ XRD） analysis revealed that amorphous TSF was crystallized to β-sheet secondary structure upon gelatin. The TSF scaffolds for controlled drug release was studied and the result showed that the time of drug release was significantly longer. The produced TSF scaffolds with sustained drug release have potential application in tissue engineering.

TDEA、TDEB 提高丝绸湿弹性机理的研究

采用自制的整理剂 TDEA 和 TDEB 对丝绸进行整理。通过耐洗率度,DSC、红外光谱和氨基酸分析测试证明 TDEA、TDEB 与丝素发生了化学反应;并通过丝素的溶胀试验、溶解度试验进一步证明TDEA、TDEB 与丝素发生了共价交联反应,从而可以认为 TDEA、TDEB 与丝素间发生共价交联作用是使丝绸湿弹性获得显著提高的主要原因。
