Seevix has developed a method to produce synthetic spider silk fibers that mimic the properties of natural spider silk. These fibers can be used in tissue engineering and wound closure, enhancing cell viability and function during culture. The project aims to introduce a 3D cell culture product to the market.
Silk from silkworms has been used by man for thousands of years.
Spiders, however, are territorial and not subject to domestication.
Consequently, their silk, which is much stronger than that of silkworms, cannot be grown in commercial quantities.
To overcome this problem, scientists have attempted to create synthetic spidersilk through genetic engineering of its proteins by means of bacteria, yeast, plants, mammalian cells in tissue culture, and even transgenic goats, but fibers resulting from…
