| Abstract | Silk fibroin (SF) is known to be a biocompatible material, and different forms of SF are used for various applications. However, the application of SF in particle form is rarely reported, compared to other forms. In this study, SF microparticles with a diameter of approximately 250 µm were prepared by the electrospray method, using 1 M LiCl/DMSO as a solvent. The dissolution time of SF in the CaCl2/CH3CH2OH/H2O solution and the concentration of the SF dope solution affected the final morphology of the microparticles. A long dissolution time and a low SF concentration led to the formation of irregular microparticles, but a short dissolution time and a high concentration produced sphere-like microparticles. The shear viscosity of the SF dope solution was the main parameter that affected the morphology of the SF microparticles. Regardless of the dissolution time in the CaCl2/CH3CH2OH/H2O solution and the concentration of the SF dope solution, the shear viscosity of the dope solution must be higher than 0.33 Pa s to produce sphere-like microparticles. Finally, cell adhesion experiments demonstrated that these SF microparticles show potential for use as cell carriers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
