Expertise

Highlights

Development of Thai silk protein as a biomaterial in tissue engineering and drug delivery applications
Thai silk fibroin, the main protein in Thai silk cocoon, was extracted and fabricated into various forms in order to apply in tissue engineering and drug delivery, for example, Thai silk fibroin-based scaffolds to be used as bone substitutes, microspheres and hydrogels to be used as drug delivery systems.
