Aplicaciones de la sericina: una proteina globular proveniente de la seda

Sericin is a protein found in silk. This one has different biological functions such as oxidation resistance, antibacterial and antimicrobial activity, and solar ultraviolet radiation (UV) protection, easy absorption and moisture release, inhibition of tyrosine and kinase’s activity and cellular additivity, anticoagulants and anticancer properties, and also promotes cell growth and wound healing. In this scientific review article will be reviewed general characteristics of both the fiber of silksilk worm Bombyx mori, and specifically of silk sericin (physico-chemical composition, structural properties and extraction methods). The potential use of sericin in food, drug and cosmetics applications will be also detailed, due to its valuable bioactive properties.
