Kraig Biocraft said it deployed 1 million genetically engineered silkworm eggs across multiple production facilities in Vietnam as part of a spring scale-up effort. The company said this effort could eventually produce around 10 metric tons of recombinant spider-silk cocoons per month. Kraig Biocraft said laboratory testing showed tensile strengths for some samples approaching 1.8 gigapascals and elasticity above 38%. It also cited Sanofi’s acquisition of Genzyme for USD 20.1 billion in 2011 in a discussion of prior genetically engineered animal-derived products.
