Calcium ion-triggered liquid-liquid phase separation of silk fibroin and spinning through acidification and shear stress

Abstract Many studies try to comprehend and replicate the natural silk spinning process due to its energy-efficient and eco-friendly process. In contrast to spider silk, the mechanisms of how silkworm silk fibroin (SF) undergoes liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) concerning the various environmen...
