AMSilk has completed preclinical testing of its proprietary silicone implant coating made from spider silk. AMSilk’s coating consists of a thin layer of spider silk proteins manufactured by AMSilk. It modifies the implant, presenting a more acceptable surface to the human tissue. The coating can be applied to any silicone implant in the final production step, just prior to packaging and sterilization; it does not alter the mechanical performance of the implant.The preclinical results have been published in Advanced Functional Materials.
