Not a single person thinks bacteria can produce silk which would require spinning it. This is so beyond common sense, and I refuse to insult their intelligence. But for you, "bacteria derived silk".

KBLB scientists are most definitely NOT on record saying that bacteria can produced spider silk (the fiber) because currently no one can spin spider silk PROTEIN into silk i.e.: no one can make spider silk from bacteria AT ALL much less "inexpensively".



For the last time, I know, you know and everyone else knows, hence why I said that bacteria silk(derived) still needs to get a viable spinning process. When I say the ecoli silk needs to be spun then then implied is the fact they cannon produce the actual fiber. Kaist does have a fiber, since they have a spinning process.. yes I know you dont think much of Kaist already.

It you will learn to distinguish between spider silk and spider silk protein you will see that the "contradiction" existed on in your mind.

I made it insanely obvious in the post you replied to that bacteria don't spin the silk, put it on reels and then place the silk reels on shelves. You actually think that in my mind I see little bacteria with spinnerets? LMAO

As long as you continue to fail to make a distinction between the two you will be unable to correctly interpret what anyone is saying about the technology.

Here you go zinco.
David Kaplan, chair of biomedical engineering at Tufts University, who has developed biomedical applications for silkworm silk, notes that Kraig Biocraft has not yet published its results in a scientific journal. Kaplan adds that a transgenic silkworm is a promising system for making spider fibers, but notes that over the long-term, large-scale industrial production may not be as viable as growing silk-producing bacteria in vats. The fiber-making process remains a challenge for approaches using bacteria, but researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, are working on microfluidics and other systems designed to mimic the silkworm's fiber-spinning capabilities.

ES1: KBLB already has an amazing product, so as l ong as kblb is not a fraud, then KBLB will be at minimum a success for the next few years.

Z06: for the last time, I am not trying to hold back KBLB, I am not trying to tell people to sell, or buy or anything. I own more than one share of kblb, this time I will not say how much. KBLB SHOULD be a success, but as I have been conversing lately, I do see in the future competition arising, this is common sense, and KBLB could branch out into other fiber ventures if successful enough with current and zfn silks.

Please retain those quotes, it is getting quite old, and if anyone doubts me, meet me in person, talk with me on the phone, look at my brokerage accounts.
