Effect of ethanol concentration on the infrared spectroscopic characteristics of silk beads

Abstract: The structural transition of silk protein has been induced by various method including alcohol treatment. To know the effect of alcohol concentration on silk beads conformation, silk beads were prepared in different alcohol concentration (100%, 70%, and 50%) and then examined the infrared spectra of silk beads. Silk beads prepared in 100% alcohol showed at 1265 cm −1 attributed β-sheet conformation and did not showed a characteristic absorption peak from model drug. However, silk beads in 70% and 50% alcohol s… Show more

“…The sericulture industry currently exists in 25 countries worldwide and is economically significant in most developing countries [21], [22]. Silk production is the primary objective of the industry and the production of high-quality silk cocoons has become more significant with the development of high-value-added applications such as healthy functional foods [23][ [24], functional products [25][ [26], and medical materials based on sericulture byproducts [27][28] [29]. Dead cocoons have no commercial value and cause the cross-contamination of normal cocoons and therefore detection and removal of these dead cocoons is crucial.…”

Among them, sonication induced rapid gelation by reduction of molecular weight and β-sheet conformation (Samal et al, 2013).…”
