<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide high concentration fibroin gel having concentration of ≥10 wt.%, having excellent compatibility with human tissue and exhibiting characteristic features of silk protein comprising high moisture retention, adhesiveness and spreadability. <P>SOLUTION: The high concentration fibroin gel creating nonconventional characteristic features of silk protein can be produced from high concentration amorphous fibroin gel without using chemical substances and long-time treatment to cause denaturation of proteins. The resultant fibroin gel is resistant to pressured steam sterilization to expand an application field to medical use, etc., in addition to cosmetic use. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
