Science and Technology of Silkworm Sericin: Extractions, Modifications and Applications focuses on the development and performance of many novel strategies for sericin extraction, modification, and its application.
This book includes contributions from leading researchers in the fields of materials science, medical science, chemical science, and nanotechnology from companies, university, government, and private research institutes all around the world.
Graduates and postgraduates, as well as research experts, will find this book to be an invaluable resource (primarily in the field of materials science, medicinal chemistry, organic chemistry and nanoscience and nanotechnology).
In addition, nearly every analytical approach has been covered. As a result, academics, students, industry, scientists, and end-users will be able to benefit from it.
- All available characterization techniques of sericin structures rigorously addressed
- Application-focused chapters, as most of the research is being done on biomedical applications such as wound healing, pharmaceutical uses, and cancer treatment
- Reviews the theory, modeling, and simulation of sericin-based biomaterials are explored as a novel area of competence
- Provides assessment based on environmental implications, which is now seen as an integral part of science in the new research culture, as well as the circular economy in the silk sector, is examined
- Offers in-depth coverage of emerging areas of sericin-based research, such as sericin in nutraceuticals

About the Author
Dr. Rangam Rajkhowa received his bachelor’s degree in Textile Technology from Anna University, India; a master’s degree in Fibre Science and Technology from Indian Institute of Technology, India and a PhD in Engineering from Deakin University. Australia. He leads the silk and natural fibre particle stream of research at the Institute for Frontier Materials. His research interests are silk based biomaterials, value addition and new applications from natural fibres and fibre wastes, sustainable fibre and textile processing, and circular economy. He set up the fibre powder research facility at Deakin University and his group investigate sustainable production and advanced applications of particles from silk and other natural fibres. The group works on fundamental understanding of fibre and particle structures and properties but also has strong focus on interdisciplinary research applications using fibres.
Sneha Sabu Mathew is a research scholar at Mahatma Gandhi University, India. She received a bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in Pure Chemistry from Mahatma Gandhi University, India. Her current research activities include the development of novel biobased biodegradable polymer composites for edible coating and packaging applications. Projects undertaken at the Mahatma Gandhi University, India, include: assisted extraction of nanocellulose from pineapple fibres and its characterization; assisted preparation of nanocellulose based edible coating using natural extracts; assisted preparation of TiO2 nanoparticle and doping for enhanced properties; assisted electrospun TiO2 nanocomposites for dye degradation, synthesis and characterisation of prepared nanofibers.
Hanna J. Maria is a Senior Researcher at the School of Energy Materials and the International and Inter University Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, Mahatma Gandhi University, India. Her research focusses on natural rubber composites and their blends, thermoplastic composites, lignin, nanocellulose, bionanocomposites, nanocellulose, rubber-based composites and nanocomposites.
