The technique to fabricate nanofibrous mat by electro-spinning has been known for a long time. But the attempts to use the electospun nanofiber mats, also known as electro-spun nanofiber membranes (ENMs), for filtration purposes began only recently. Among many membrane filtration processes, air cleaning by the removal of dust particles has already been commercialized and the product has been in...

Artificial Biomolecular Condensates In article number 2104704, Huaimin Wang and co-workers report a general approach for constructing artificial biomolecular condensates of oligopeptide in living cells. The rationally designed aromatic-capped peptides can reversibly form nanofibrous hydrogel with change the conformation morphologies lysosome. formed undergo swelling lysosome, leading to lysosom...

Current strategies for jaw reconstruction require multiple procedures, to repair the bone defect, to offer sufficient support, and to place the tooth implant. The entire procedure can be painful and time-consuming, and the desired functional repair can be achieved only when both steps are successful. The ability to engineer combined tooth and bone constructs, which would grow in a coordinated f...

Antimicrobial peptides, produced by innate immune system of hosts in response to invading pathogens, are capable of fighting against a spectrum of bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites and cancer cells. Here, a recombinant silkworm AMP Bmattacin2 from heterologous expression is studied, indicating a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity and showing selective killing ability towards skin and co...

The ability to produce composite nanofibers from synthetic and natural polymers represents a significant advancement in development of composite materials with structural and material properties that will support biomedical applications such as tissue engineering, drug delivery and wound healing. In this research composite nanofiber membranes of magnesium oxide (MgO), poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL...

Nanofibrous ultrafilter of nylon6.12/chitosan@Poly ether sulfone (N6.12/CS@PES) membrane were fabricated by chitosan casted PES and coated with nylon6.12 thin layer using electrospinning technique for dye rejection. The membranes characterized scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD). capacity the to reject both cationic anioni...

Particulate matter (PM) pollution has become a serious threat to human health. Accordingly, an air filtration media that can efficiently remove particulate should be developed immediately. Nanofibrous membrane filter prepared by electrospinning technology nanoscale diameter, high specific surface area, and relatively porosity, which are suitable for dust removal. This paper explored the effects...

Biomimetic nanofibrous scaffolds mimicking important features of the native extracellular matrix provide a promising strategy to restore functions or achieve favorable responses for tissue regeneration. This review provides a brief overview of current state-of-the-art research designing and using biomimetic electrospun nanofibers as scaffolds for tissue engineering. It begins with a brief intro...

The objective of this work was to study the feasibility of preparing cellulose acetate (CA) nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning with single solvent and their potential applying as affinity membrane. CA solutions in dichloromethane (DCM), formic acid, acetic acid and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) were electrospun into nonwoven fiber membranes, respectively. The scanning electron microscope (SE...
