Cytotoxic evaluation of phenolic compounds from lichens against melanoma cells.

abstract：:To evaluate the usability of silk protein (sericin, SC) as a sustained-release material, the physicochemical properties of SC and the release profiles of model drugs from SC gel, sponge and film were studied. Heat aids the dissolution of SC. The molecular weight of SC tended to decrease as the heating temperature and ...
