Figure 1

(a) Percentage of light transmission and (b) water vapor transmission rate of silk sericin/PVA films cross-linked with genipin at different concentrations: (○) 0, (•) 0.01, (▲) 0.025, ( ) 0.05, (■) 0.075, and (*) 0.1% w/v. * , significant against the values of non-cross-linked films at corresponding time.
