“…The global yearly production of sericin is about 50,000 metric tons [21]. Strong polar side groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amino groups exist in sericin due to the 18 kinds of amino acids contained in it, making sericin a low-cost biosorbent for organic dyes or heavy metal ions through electrostatic interaction or chelation [22][23][24].…”

“…9 The photodegradation of p-nitrophenol (PNP) was investigated by Chen at different conditions in an aqueous suspension of P25 TiO 2 nanoparticles and also over immobilized P25 TiO 2 nanoparticles. [13][14][15][16] Surprisingly, there is an increasing interest in combining the photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 with hydrophobic polymers for the preparation of polymer supported TiO 2 in bacteriological studies. We also underline the role of TiO 2 as a photocatalytic antibacterial material that has considerable beneficial properties, such as bio-compatibility, a high potential for self-cleaning and high antibacterial activity, 11,12 and it is now the basis for a number of commercial antibacterial products.…”

“…Titanium surfaces modified by immobilizing sericin, promote osteoblast cell adhesion, proliferation, and alkaline phosphatase activity [61,62]. Cotton fibers modified with silk sericin using glutaraldehyde and dimethyloldihydroxyethylene urea as crosslinking agents are proven to be useful for the development of medical textiles, for instance, gauze and pad dressing due to their high moisture absorbency and smooth surfaces [63].…”
