Science Daily is reporting that silk spun naturally by spiders that have had graphene and carbon nanotubes introduced into their environment is up to three times stronger and 10 times tougher than ordinary spider silk. The study was conducted by researchers from Italy’s University of Trento and the Cambridge Graphene Centre at the University of Cambridge in the U.K., and was published in 2D Materials.

So, what is graphene in simple terms?

Essentially a layer of ...

Spider silk advancement may treat wounds with controlled release of antibiotics

https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-03-19-spider-silk-may-treat-wounds-with-controlled-release-of-antibiotics.html

March 19, 2019 -

Spider silk has long been known to scientists around the world as a marvel of natural engineering. Touted to be stronger than steel, researchers at the University of Nottingham now found that it can also aid in wound healing and recovery.

While we are still far from a spider web bandage, scientists showed for the first time how click chemistry can be used to adhere molecules, such as antibiotics or fluorescent dyes, to spider silk synthesized by E. coli bacteria.A ...

Many of our scientific advances pale in comparison to what nature has developed and perfected long ago. A good number of our technologies are basically copies of natural equivalents, and inferior copies at that.

One of the scientific fields that is trying to catch up to nature's ways is materials research. A big objective of this field is to understand the way natural materials are organized on the nanoscale level and replicate these architectures in man-made products.

An engineering feat: Different types of silk in a spider web allow it to effectively capture prey

https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-11-30-different-silk-in-spider-web-allow-it-to-capture-pray-effectively.html

November 30, 2018 -

Intrigued by this duality, a group of researchers investigated the physical architecture and material composition of spiderwebs. As detailed by a Newswise article, the study sought to determine how a combination of various silks and geometric shapes resulted in the elasticity and strength of the web.

They reported coming across a means by which the silk strands absorbed energy. It could handle both minute amounts of energy caused by the movement of small prey animals and ...

Spider silk is so strong that researchers can use it to improve the performance of piezoelectric nanogenerators

August 15, 2018 -

This was the first time a piezoelectric response has been elicited from spider silk. Professor Bhanu Bhusan Khatua of the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (IIT Kharagpur) explained that they discovered natural silk fibers responded to pressure from vertical, out-of-plane directions.

"Although spider silk fibers show nature's most outstanding mechanical properties, for example, excellent tensile strength and elasticity, and remarkable protein sequence structure, ...

November 26, 2017 -

Ford has been testing four different models of exoskeletal arms that can help alleviate the fatigue that often sets in for assembly line workers. Fellow car manufacturer Audi has been testing out robotic assist technology in its production plants for two years, while Hyundai has been working on a wearable robot suit.

Assembly line workers might have to carry out overhead tasks as many as 4,600 times a day, so it’s not surprising that they’re often plagued by pain throughout ...

Remember Diamond and Silk? Diamond “died suddenly” in her kitchen and Silk wants answers

A death certificate obtained by The Associated Press (AP) shows that Diamond died of a heart condition. The official story in the corporate press is that it was "heart disease due to chronic high blood pressure."

Silk, however, is not convinced. At her sister's memorial service, she stated that "there's something going on." Silk says that just prior to her sister's death, Diamond told her "I can't breathe," and that she needed to open up the back door to get some air....

Scientists create a “bionic mushroom” that produces electricity

https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-02-03-scientists-create-a-bionic-mushroom-that-produces-electricity.html

February 03, 2019 -

This Frankenstein's Monster is the brainchild of researchers from the Stevens Institute of Technology (Stevens). They used a 3D printer to create cyanobacteria clusters and graphene-based nanoribbons, which they then grafted onto a white button mushroom.

The resulting animal-mineral-vegetable hybrid can absorb sunlight via its cyanobacteria and turn it into energy via photosynthesis. The electricity is collected by the nanoribbons, which can be extracted later on.
