But one day, it may be possible to fashion a silk bulletproof vest from, of all things, goat's milk. For decades, scientists have been in awe of the lowly spider and the magical material it uses ...

Lena Schaeffer knows of a lot of uses for goat’s milk. Schaeffer of Dove Song Dairy in Jefferson Township, which milks roughly 95 goats, talked of artisan cheeses, soaps and an increasing demand ...

Lewis: We moved the gene from our bacteria into goats, and so they produce the spider silk protein in the milk, and we collect the milk and purify the spider silk protein from that. Narrator ...

When these transgenic goats have kids and start lactating, the researchers will collect the milk and purify the spider silk protein into “much, much higher quantities,” Lewis said. Other than ...

are planning to produce spider silk on a commercial scale with goats that have been genetically engineered to secrete silk proteins in their milk. "Mimicking spider silk properties has been the ...

To make it, scientists extracted spider-silk proteins from the milk of genetically engineered goats, then wove those proteins into artificial silk fibers. After grafting the silk fibers with human ...

One of the ways to do this is by creating replicas of spider silk based on spidroins ... in the past is by expressings the protein in goat milk. Now defunct company Nexia produced a fiber called ...

So, scientists got weird with it. Using genetic engineering, scientists have created transgenic goats and mice which produce spider silk proteins in their milk. While mouse milk hasn't yet hit the ...

Kanye West's music video for his breakout single Through the Wire may have made rapping with a reconstructed jaw look easy. In reality, the medical implants used to mend fractured bones can result ...
