| Application | Drug Delivery,Tissue Engineering,Wound Dressing,Cosmetics |
| Description | Water soluble silk fibroin is derived from raw silk through a process that breaks down the fibroin protein into smaller, soluble chains or by modifying it to enhance its solubility in aqueous solutions. This form allows for easier processing and blending with other polymers to form hydrogels with controlled properties like porosity and swelling. |
| Application Areas | These hydrogels are employed in injectable drug delivery systems, as bio-inks for 3D bioprinting of complex tissue structures, and in formulating stimuli-responsive hydrogels that can change their properties in response to environmental cues like pH or temperature. |
