Synthetic Biology Enables Microbes To Build Muscle Fibers That Are Tougher Than Kevlar

Posted by in categories: bioengineering, biological

No animals were harmed in the production of the synthetic muscle fibers, which are tougher than Kevlar.

Would you wear clothing made of muscle fibers? Use them to tie your shoes or even wear them as a belt? It may sound a bit odd, but if those fibers could endure more energy before breaking than cotton, silk, nylon, or even Kevlar, then why not?

Don’t worry, this muscle could be produced without harming a single animal.
