Abstract: Sericin, a silk protein, has high potential for use in biomedical applications. It has important attributes such as excellent oxygen permeability, cell protecting and antioxidant action, moisture regulating ability, protection from ultraviolet (UV) radiation and microbes, wound healing, anticancer and anticoagulant properties. Sericin, however, has no direct affinity for textiles. In this study conditions for imparting a durable finish to polyester, based on sericin have been optimized.
