Abstract

A silk cocoon protects a silkworm during its pupal stage from various threats. We systematically investigated the role of fiber, sericin and embedded crystals in UV protection of silk cocoon. Diffuse reflectance and UV absorbance were measured and free radicals generated during exposure to UV radiation were quantified using photo induced chemiluminescence (PICL). We identified response to both...
