While the U.S. biotech company Kraig Biocraft is still tinkering to improve their production processes , the German competition is already one step ahead . In March, the Bavarian company AMSilk presented in Martinsried near Munich, the prototype of a new fiber. This is called fiber Biosteel and consists of proteins that are found in nature in the threads of the spider ...
..."Have taken the crucial hurdles to innovation for the production of fiber we have," says Lin Romans, the head of research . "We now build a larger pilot plant , the fiber further improve and then start industrial production ," announced the managing director Axel Leimer ...
...And how to assess the AMSilk men their American counterparts ? You watch them carefully , but relaxed : " The fiber of the transgenic silkworms can not compare with our stuff ," said Leimer .
What he means : He considers them inferior. Because the proportion of spider silk in the fiber of the transgenic silkworm is he estimated a maximum of ten percent. In addition, the production process of the American company was vulnerable to disturbances and variations in quality . An explanation is provided by his colleague, biochemist Lin Romans : " In highly developed organisms such as silkworms or goats, for a correct installation and a long-term functionality of the spider genes are much more difficult to implement than in bacteria.
