According to the author of the article, specialists from Moscow State University named after M.V. Lomonosov, National Research Center for Transplantology and Artificial Organs named after Academician V.I. Shumakov, IMB RAS, FSCC FMBA and the Kurchatov Institute. The “artificial web” is actually produced by yeast fungi. Mushrooms before that, scientists change using genetic engineering methods.
The advantage of this web is that it heals wounds very quickly. It can also prevent the appearance of a scar on the skin.
According to Vladimir Bogush, a leading researcher at the Kurchatov Institute, this material can be used to heal absolutely any wound. This is due to the fact that the “web” stimulates the work of stem cells, which are found in all tissues of the body.
In addition, “spider silk” is durable and at the same time light. Its characteristics are much better than all materials created by people, and besides, its proteins are completely compatible with the human body.
