Optical characterisation of Steatoda paykulliana spider dragline silk

This project aims to characterise the optical properties of spider silk under the non-destructive light microscopy technique. Spider silk is of interest to the bioengineering and industrial communities because of its mechanical and biomedical properties, such as being extremely strong, flexible and...
