Bioactive hierarchical silk fibers created by bioinspired self-assembly
The creation of silk fibres using bioinspired approaches is of interest for biomaterials development. Here, the authors report on the creation of mimetic hierarchical silk fibres by the rotational self-assembly of silk fibroin droplets and demonstrate the creation of bioactive silk materials.
