Shear-mediated sol-gel transition of regenerated silk allows the formation of Janus-like microgels
Abstract Microcapsules and microgels consisting of macromolecular networks have received increasing attention due to their biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. Protein microgels and in particular silk-based microcapsules have desirable properties due to their biocompatibility and lack of toxi...
