We report an electronic tongue based on impedance spectroscopy to detect Staphylococcus aureus and diagnose bovine mastitis in milk samples. This was achieved with optimized sensing units made layer-by-layer films by treating the capacitance data machine learning algorithms employing decision trees models. These were chitosan, chondroitin sulfate, sericin gold nanoparticles /sericin, whose mole...

Beyond the commonly known proteins built silk fibres—fibroin and sericin, there are almost 300 bioactive proteins in the silkworm haemolymph. The aim of this work was to present bioactive compounds obtained from the silk fibre and isolated from the body of this insect, which may be used in medical and pharmacological applications. The most important are bioactive proteins. However, the juvenile...

There is a significant interest in developing environmentally responsive or stimuli-responsive smart materials. The purpose of this study was to investigate multi-function cotton fabrics with surface modification on the nanoscale. Three technologies including electrospinning technology, interpenetrating polymer network and cross-linking technology were applied prepare sericin/poly(N-isopropylac...
