Effects of Iron Oxide Content on the Growth of Silkworm and Properties of Silk

Silk fibers were produced by feeding Bombyx mori silkworm larvae with a modified feed of mulberry leaves containing nano Fe3O4 particles. The silkworms were weighed to determine the effect of nano Fe3O4 particles on the growth of larvae. The effects of nano Fe3O4 contents on the morphologies, chemic...
