Characterization of Recent and Historical Silks: Effects of Silk Processing on Chemical Composition and Amino Acid Racemization

In this work, the influence of dyeing, mordanting and degumming techniques on the amino acid (AA) composition and the AA racemization (AAR) of (non-)mulberry silks is studied by a chiral GC-MS method. The tested dyeing and mordanting procedures as well as a pre-treatment of the silk filaments with E...
