The invention provides a method for the controlled assembly of layered silk fibroin coatings using aqueous silk fibroin material. The methods described herein can be used to coat substrates of any material, shape, or size. Importantly, the described methods enable control of the biomaterial surface chemistry, thickness, morphology and structure using layered thin film coatings, or bulk coatings. Furthermore, the methods can be performed in all water and do not require intensive chemical processing enabling controlled entrapment of labile molecules such as, drugs, cytokines, and even cells or viruses to generate functional coatings that can be used in a variety of applications.

L'invention concerne un procédé d'assemblage contrôlé de revêtements de fibroïne en couches au moyen d'un matériau de fibroïne aqueux. Les procédés de l'invention peuvent être utilisés pour revêtir des substrats de matériau, forme, ou taille de toute sorte. Les procédés de l'invention permettent de contrôler la chimie, la surface, l'épaisseur, la morphologie et la structure de la surface du biomatériau au moyen de revêtements de film mince en couches, ou de revêtements d'épaisseur. En outre, les procédés de l'invention peuvent être mis en oeuvre dans tout type d'eau et ne nécessitent pas de traitement chimique intensif permettant de capturer de manière contrôlée des molécules labiles de type médicaments, cytokines, et cellules ou virus afin que soient générés des revêtements fonctionnels pouvant être utilisés dans diverses applications.
