Optimizing and Evaluating Hand-drawing and Wet-spinning for Recombinant Spider Silk Fiber Production

Spider silks are renowned for their mechanical properties, with hallmark high strength, high extensibility, or a combination of these leading to high toughness. A typical female orb-weaving spider produces seven different types of silk, each typically spun from type-specific protein(s) and mechanica...
