Lysozyme-loaded, electrospun chitosan-based nanofiber mats for wound healing.
In this study, a blend mixture of chitosan-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (CS 2 wt%-EDTA) at a weight ratio of 30/70 and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) solution (10 wt%) was electrospun to produce fibrous mats with lysozyme (10, 20 and 30 wt%) used for wound healing. The morphology and diameter of the electrospun fiber mats with and without lysozyme were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Electrospun Nanofiber Interfaces for Biosensing Devices
Electrospinning has emerged as a very powerful method combining efficiency, versatility and low cost to elaborate scalable ordered and complex nanofibrous assemblies from a rich variety of polymers. Electrospun nanofibers have demonstrated high potential for a wide spectrum of applications, including drug delivery, tissue engineering, energy conversion and storage, or physical and chemical sens...
متن کاملChitosan for biomedical applications
Chitosan, a copolymer of glucosamine and N-acetyl glucosamine, is a polycationic, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer. In addition, chitosan has different functional groups that can be modified with a wide array of ligands. Because of its unique physicochemical properties, chitosan has great potential in a range of biomedical applications, including tissue engineering, non-viral gene delive...
متن کاملElectrospun chitosan-based nanofiber mats loaded with Garcinia mangostana extracts.
The aim of this study was to prepare electrospun chitosan-based nanofiber mats and to incorporate the fruit hull of Garcinia mangostana (GM) extracts into the mats. Chitosan-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid/polyvinyl alcohol (CS-EDTA/PVA) was selected as the polymers. The GM extracts with 1, 2 and 3 wt% α-mangostin were incorporated into the CS-EDTA/PVA solution and electrospun to obtain nanofib...
متن کاملPatterned nanofiber meshes for biomedical applications
The aim of this work was to prepare nanofibre meshes using various collectors with different geometries and with specific dimensions and to evaluate how those patterns can affect the properties of the meshes. The underlying hypothesis addressed in this study is if it is possible to control the architecture of the fibre meshes by tailoring the geometry of the collector. To test this hypothesis, ...
