Silk Biowaste Protein Mediated Silver Nanoparticles Synthesis and Analysis of Anti-Inflammatory, Wound Healing, Antidiabetic, Antioxidant, Tyrosinase Inhibition, and Antibacterial Mechanism of Action

The results indicated that Scn-AgNPs could be a potential candidate for various applications, including cosmetics for preparing antioxidant rich gels and nano formulations, in the biomedical field as a component of wound dressing, antibacterial dressing, drug carriers and drug delivery systems, and in environmental sectors as antibacterial agents, food packaging, food additives and in vitro/in vivo monitoring. This study highlights the use of sericin bio-waste materials into valuable resources, endorsing sustainability and enhancing the commercial value of silk-based bio-waste materials.
