In Vitro Evaluation of Spider Silk Meshes as a Potential Biomaterial for Bladder Reconstruction
Reconstruction of the bladder by means of both natural and synthetic materials remains a challenge due to severe adverse effects such as mechanical failure. Here we investigate the application of spider major ampullate gland-derived dragline silk from the Nephila edulis spider, a natural biomaterial...
