TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an overview of the electrospinning (applied electric field, distance between the needle and collector and flow rate, needle diameter), solution (polymer concentration, viscosity, solvent and solution conductivity) and environmental (relativity humidity and temperature) parameters that affect the nanofibers fabrication.

TL;DR: The blood compatibilities of the surface-modified PETs were examined using in vitro thrombus formation, plasma recalcification time (PRT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and platelet adhesion and activation, suggesting the binding of immobilized heparin to antithrombin III.

TL;DR: The surface of the nanofibrous film showed enhanced cell adhesion over that of the flat film, althoughcell adhesion was not significantly affected by the combination with HAp, and the degradation rate of HAp/PHBV nan ofibrous films in the presence of polyhydroxybutyrate depolymerase was very fast.

TL;DR: The composition of HA, the advances in its synthesis processes, characterization and functionalization techniques, and its importance in the biomedical field in general, and in emerging areas such as implants, drug delivery, composites, coatings, and ceramic materials in particular are highlighted.

TL;DR: In this review, various synthetic routes adapted for the preparation of the Ag-NPs, the mechanisms involved in its antimicrobial activity, its importance/application in commercial as well as biomedical fields, and possible application in future have been discussed in detail.
