Hello dem,

thus never make spider silk as strong as nature does.

Now i'm neither a scientist or biochemist but wouldn't the introduction of metallic ions further strengthen certain spider silks?

Spider silk is already tougher and lighter than steel, and now scientists have made it three times stronger by adding small amounts of metal.

KBLB will be working with metallic ions:

Our third line of products, which we refer to as “Gen 3 technical and medical fiber,” is designed to move beyond the physical, mechanical and chemical properties of natural spider silk. Gen 3 fibers are in a relatively early stage of development and will incorporate such elements as antibacterial agents for medical use, and metallic ions for use in industrial processes.

Please correct me if i'm incorrect,as this is the conclusion I have gathered.



KBLB....more than just a ticker symbol.

We Can and We Will....Succeed.


Take Care and God Bless....God Bless Us All.

WE'RE THE REAL DEAL IN STEEL APPEAL....PERIOD

Metric tons of ms have already happened. When Kim will choose to tell us is the question. When the time is right we will know. It will be very soon....

No doubt, but take an advanced class in chemistry and nanotechnology and you'd conclude that there's nothing that cannot be done. It is all a matter of your perspective IMO and those who are buying into this company story line are those on one side of that perspective.

What I do know is that those investing here are believing the company's story line even more than those professionals that are within the business and aware of all of the efforts of all of the players in the business.

I'm not going to waste more money on this research yet. I know there are some very expensive industry sponsored association publications on this and related matters. I'm told the Kraig Biocraft efforts are mentioned but certainly not the leading efforts discussed. I don't know and further, at this stage, I don't care.

I have enough professional experience with start up displacement technology based businesses, in many different fields, to know that what the company hopes and says is not likely what will happen, not even likely to be close on their hopes/dreams. Many posters here obviously realize that as well (but oddly, only about the competition). Maybe everybody here is smarter than all of those in the business, or maybe it is too much "hopium" distorting what should be a more pragmatic process. Not many research companies will tell you they are facing uphill battles in their efforts to displace existing technologies with a long term solution, yet almost all of them are. I've been in too many meetings where the "wow" of what we've done displaced the "truth" about what we still had to accomplish.

Bio-tech.. yeah, feed the cows using some additives with the proteins from butchered cows... genetically alter the food line.. rush forward with all the corrections and improvements on nature.. what can we lose?
