Microfluidic spinning of micro- and nano-scale fibers for tissue engineering.

Large-scale and highly efficient synthesis of micro- and nano-fibers with controlled fiber morphology by centrifugal jet spinning for tissue regeneration.

PLLA fibrous tissue scaffolds with controlled fiber nanoscale surface roughness are fabricated with a novel centrifugal jet spinning process. The centrifugal jet spinning technique is a highly efficient synthesis method for micron- to nano-sized fibers with a production rate up to 0.5 g min(-1). During the centrifugal jet spinning process, a polymer solution jet is stretched by the centrifugal ...

Production and Characterization of Gelatine Based Electro-spun Nano-fibres as Burn Wound Dressings

Silver sulfadiazine is used to prevent and treat infections of second- and third-degree burns. It kills a wide variety of bacteria. In this study silver sulfadiazine was used in gelatin based electro-spun nano-fibers with various drug to polymer ratios (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 %). SEM, EDX and FTIR analysis showed that the continuous, bead-free, fine fibers containing silver sulfadiazine as an anti...

Bombyx mori Silk Fibroin Scaffolds with Antheraea pernyi Silk Fibroin Micro/Nano Fibers for Promoting EA. hy926 Cell Proliferation

Achieving a high number of inter-pore channels and a nanofibrous structure similar to that of the extracellular matrix remains a challenge in the preparation of Bombyx mori silk fibroin (BSF) scaffolds for tissue engineering. In this study, Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin (ASF) micro/nano fibers with an average diameter of 324 nm were fabricated by electrospinning from an 8 wt % ASF solution in h...

Comparison of the Anti-Fungal Effect of Electro-Spinning Drug-Loaded Nano-Fibers and Pad Dry Drug-Loaded Fabrics

Microchip-based 3D-Cell Culture Using Polymer Nanofibers Generated by Solution Blow Spinning.

Polymer nano/micro fibers have found many applications including 3D cell culture and the creation of wound dressings. The fibers can be produced by a variety of techniques that include electrospinning, the primary disadvantage of which include the requirement for a high voltage supply (which may cause issues such as polymer denaturation) and lack of portability. More recently, solution blow spi...
