What started as a work of art and science fiction may become a medical miracle that benefits burn patients, aids bone regeneration and one day may even make us bulletproof. 在科技小说或艺术作品中可以治疗烧伤病人,帮助骨头痊愈甚至可以防弹的医学奇迹即将变为现实。 Dutch artist Jalila Essa?di and cell biologist Abdoelwaheb El Ghalbzouri blended synthetic spider silk with human skin to produce a superstrong material that can stop a rifle bullet shot at half its regular speed. 荷兰的艺术家加里拉·埃塞迪和细胞生物学家阿波德尔瓦赫比·高尔波泽瑞将蜘蛛丝和人类皮肤合成在一起,制作了一种具有超级人性的可以以恒速的一半组织步枪的射击。 Time to move over Kevlar? Not quite yet, but the new weave could turn out to have various medical uses. 到了淘汰纤维B的时候么?其实并不是,但是新的材料可以有更多的医学用途。 Essa?di's original art work is a lab sample of skin tissue stored in a refrigerator and accompanied by a video showing a gunshot test on the material. 埃迪赛最初的工作原型是一片储存在实验室冰箱中的皮肤组织,并且还有非常详细的以它为材料进行的枪击实验的视频说明。 The special skin will soon become part of Belgian art collector Geert Verbeke's unusual portfolio: he plans to graft part of the artist's creation into his arm later this year. |
