In this work, natural-based and biodegradable nanofibers were produced by electrospinning for drug delivery wound dressing applications, using gelatin (Gel), chitosan (CS), cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) natural propolis extract. The polymeric formulations parameters optimized, resulting in the development of Gel/CS with mean diameters 97 nm. CNC successfully introduced into optimized solution vi...

Chitosan/gelatin-based nanofibers display excellent biological performance in tissue engineering because of their biocompatible composition and nanofibrous structure with a high surface-to-volume ratio mimicking the native extracellular matrix. In this study, to save time cost experiments, response surface methodology based on Box–Behnken design (BBD) is developed predict mean diameter (chitosa...

The development of next-generation adsorption, separation, and filtration materials is growing with an increased research focus on polymer composites. In this study, a novel blend chitosan (CS) polyethylene oxide (PEO) nanofiber mats was electrospun titanium (Ti)-coated terephthalate (PET) track-etched membranes (TMs) after-treatment by glutaraldehyde in the vapor phase for enhancing stability ...

Objective(S): Implant-related infections are disastrous complications in the clinic. One recent strategy to reduce the rate of infection is using the bioactive coating with an antibiotic. The purpose of these bioactive surfaces is to prevent bacterial adhesion to the implant and, consequently, the development of biofilm. In this study, vancomycin-loaded polymeric coating on imp...
