세리신은 누에고치의 고치실에서 추출되는 천연 단백질로서 많은 수산화기를 가지고 있어 뛰어난 보습성을 가진다. 이에 화장품에의 응용이 기대되나, 물에 잘 녹지 않는 특성을 가지고 있어서 화장품 원료로 사용하기에 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 친양쪽성 화합물인 poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG)을 세리신에 도입하여 수용성이며 자기조합형(self-assembled) 세리신-PEG 결합체를 합성하였다. 세리신내의 tyrosine 잔기의 방향 족 수산화기가 반응사이트임을 $^1$H-NMR 분석으로 알 수 있었으며, IR과 CD 측정으로 PEG 사슬의 도입으로 세리신의 구조가 불규칙한 coil구조에서 $\beta$-sheet구조로 구조적 변화가 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 또한 DSC 분석에서 세리신-PEG결합이후 각각의 녹는점이 떨어지는 것을 확인하여 상호 결정성에 영향을 주는 것을 확인하였다. 세리신-PEG 결합체는 자기조합하여 소수성 상호작용을 통해 200-400nm의 구형 나노입자를 이루며 투석방법을 통하여 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 세리신-PEG 나노입자는 세리신자체보다 더 높은 보습력을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 세리신-PEG 결합체의 cytotoxicity는 MTT assay에 의해 독성이 없음을 확인하였으며, 동물실험에 의한 독성도 전혀 나타내지 않음을 알 수있었다. 나노입자의 특성과 세리신의 보습성, 세리신-PEG의 친양쪽성 특성으로 세리신-PEG결합체 나노입자는 그 자체로도 원료로 사용 될 수 있을 뿐 아니라 생리 활성성분의 운반체로의 개발이 기대되어 진다.

Sericin 정착은 친수성 단백질인 세리신을 화학처리에 의하여 소수성으로 변화시켜 fibroin 에 밀착, 응고시켜 생사를 양모와 유사한 섬유로 변화시켜 제품의 다양화를 기할 목적으로 많이 행하여졌으며 이에 따른 증량효과도 크게 기대되어진다. 종래의 세리신 정착방법들은 생사의 제리신 정착외에 공업적으로 그 가치가 크게 인정되었던 견사, 생사 층 등에도 광범위하게 응용되어 많은 특허가 있는데 이들 정착방법을 대별하면 (1) Aldehyde 처리에 의한 세리신 정착 (2) Cr 감류처리에 의한 세리신 정착 (3) Epoxy 화합물의 처리에 의한 세리신 정착 (4) 합성수지 처리에 의한 세리신 정착등을 들 수 있겠으며 그 중에서도 특히 Aldehyde 에 의한 정착 (주로 formaldehyde 사용) 과 Cr 감류에 의한 정착이 가장 많이 행해진 경향을 보인다.

Silk sericin powder was prepared by mechanical treatment from culled-cocoon extract of Bombyx mori silkworm. The physical and structural characteristics of sericin powder were investigated by instrumental analysis. The solubility of sericin powder was decreased nearly half of sericin lyophilized. Amino acid analysis showed that arginine content was decreased from 3.72% to 0.03∼0.07%. XRD showed that molecules of sericin were somewhat regularly arranged by mechanical treatment. On the other hand, FT-IR showed the molecular vibration of silk sericin was not induced by mechanical treatment. Thermal properties also did not changed.

Silk sericin protein was extracted by treatment with enzyme or NaOH solution from raw silk and culled-cocoon shell. The extracted sericin was characterized and examined the functional properties as well as subjective properties for its use as a soap and a body cleaner. The optimum extraction conditions on specimen are NaOH (0.02 wt.%) or enzyme, Flavourzyme 3% under N2 gas. Molecular weights of sericin was decreased by treatment with enzyme, Actinase, from 10,000-30,000 to 2,700-4,200. Sericin showed important bioactive properties, for instance, lowering effect on blood glucose and alcohol. Subjective test of sericin soap and body cleaner showed superior in washability, foamability, and skin hydration, etc., to commercial soap and body cleaner. Therefore, it is thought that silk sericin can be expected as the source of bioactive and skin-compatible materials.

This experiment was to know properties of Sericin Jam that development, growth of silkgland, content of sericin and composition of amino acid in hemolymph. The characters of Sericin Jam can he seen form this experiment. Hatching ratio was 85% in Sericin Jam and 95% in Jam 120. Especially hatching period of Sericin Jam was longer than Jam 120 and also hatching of Sericin Jam was ununiform. The larval duration of Sericin Jam was 20 days and 23 hours, and Jaw 120 was 21 days and 22 hours. In Sericin Jam, middle silkgland contain a great p arts in silkgalod and posterior silkgand is short and no curves. The period of mounting to emergence was 12 days in Sericin Jam. The period of pupa was 7day. It is property of Sericin Jam that the period is short. Cocoon was very thin and light in Sericin Jam. Weight of cocoon shell of Sericin Jam is 2.7cg. The sericin protein quantity was 100% in cocoon shell of Sericin Jam, about 28% in cocoon shell of Jam 120, however the sericin ratio per Sericin Jam cocoon was 34.6% compare to cocoon shell of Jaw 120 in sericin protein quantity. The amino acids in hemolymph of Sericin Jaw was much hidtidine, lysine, glut amic acid. And the amount of almost amino acids were increased depends upon development at t he 5th instar.

세리신은 피브로인과 거의 같은 아미노산으로 이루어져 있으며 피브로인에 못지않게 그 활용이 기대되는바 화장품의 보습제, 식ㆍ음료의 첨가제, 생약제, 섬유가공제등 많은 분야에 이용되고 있다. 그러나 세리신의 회수에는 견 섬유의 주용도인 섬유 (피브로인)로서의 목적을 충족시키면서 부수적으로 세리신을 회수해야 한다는 큰 어려움이 있다. 즉 견섬유를 정련하여 세리신을 제거하는데는 주로 비누/알칼리 정련법이 이용되고 있으나 이 방법으로 정련을 하면 세리시이 가수분해하여 저분자화하기 때문에 그 회수가 어려워진다. (중략)

The sericin fixation of raw silk by glutaraldehyde solutions with catalyst(serifix B) was done and the effect of sericin fixation by catalyst on reaction mechanism, whiteness and physical properties were investigated and discussed. The obtained results were summarized as follows; 1) The complete sericin fixation were obtained by glutaraldyhyde solution regardless the concentration of catalyst. 2) The tenacities of sericin fixed silk increased in comparison with that of nontreated silk. 3) There were not constant tendency in elongation of sericin fixed silk in comparison with nontreated silk. 4) The whiteness of sericin fixed silk treated glutaral-silk in comparison with nontreated silk. 5) FT-IR spectra were quite different from sericin fixed reagent and catalyst.

The attaching treatment of sericin onto polyester fiber was attempted to improve its sanitary properties. Generally, sericin, a gummy material covering the outer layer of silk filament, is subjected to be removed during degumming process of silk textile process. For this study, sericin particle dissolved within the degumming waste water could be collected by sedimentation of polyaluminium chloride. It was revealed that sericin particle were attached onto the surface of polyester fiber evenly by treatment of glutaraldehyde, a crosslinking agent. A frictional static charge of the treated polyester fabric could be improved, while its hygroscopic property was little changed.

실크 세리신은 누에(Bombyx mori)로부터 얻어지는 천연 거대분자 단백질로서, 누에고치실의 20~30%를 차지하고 있다. 세리신은 외부로의 자극으로부터 피브로인을 보호하는 역할을 하지만, 견사나 견직물을 얻기 위해서는 정련 공정에서 반드시 제거하게 된다. 현재 생산 현장에서는 비누/알칼리 정련법으로 세리신을 제거하고 있는데, 정련 폐액중에 포함되어 있는 세리신 단백질에서 분해된 각종 아미노산과 비누 및 강알칼리 약제로 인해 환경오염의 주된 원인이 되고 있다. (중략)

In order to investigate the effective sericin fixation of raw silk fibers the influence of various additives added to the melamine and formalin mixtures on sericin fixation was studied. When raw silk fibers were treated with wetting agent but without subsequent washing before sericin fixation, the strong sericin fixation was obtained by fixing sericin. Adding hydrogen peroxide to the melamine and formalin mixture made sericin fixation worse, resulting weaken the sericin hardness of fixed raw silk fibers and tight bonding of the fibers. On the other hand, it was confirmed that adding sodium hydrosulfite to the melamine and formalin mixtures gave better sericin hardness of fixed raw silk fibers without the bonding of fibers. Supplying additional melamine with he low concentration of sodium hydroxide to the melamine and formalin mixture(melamine:formalin= 1:6) resulted in very good sericin fixation. But adding hydrochloric acid or methanol to the same mixture had no effect on the sericin fixation, and adding magnesium chloride to it made the hardness of sericin fixation even worse.
