Silkworms Inspired This Easy Way To Spin Nanofibers | Headline Science
Did you know that luxurious, expensive silk fabric is made from … well, worm spit? The way that silkworms wind their cocoons from fibers in their slimy saliva is now helping scientists more easily make new materials with biomedical applications. Researchers reporting in ACS’ Nano Letters have mimicked the seemingly simple head-bobbing of silkworms to create uniform micro- and nanofibers with less equipment than other methods.
