Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and process relationship of electrospun bioabsorbable nanofiber membranes
TL;DR: In this paper, an electrospinning method was used to fabricate bioabsorbable amorphous poly( d, l -lactic acid) (PDLA) and semi-crystalline poly( l-lactic acids) (PLLA) nanofiber non-woven membranes for biomedical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a nanostructured DNA delivery scaffold via electrospinning of PLGA and PLA-PEG block copolymers.
TL;DR: This work represents the first successful demonstration of plasmid DNA incorporation into a polymer scaffold using electrospinning, and when tested under tensile loads, the electrospun polymer/DNA composite scaffolds exhibited tensile moduli values that approximate those of skin and cartilage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incorporation and controlled release of a hydrophilic antibiotic using poly(lactide-co-glycolide)-based electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds
Kwangsok Kim,Yen K. Luu,Charles Chang,Dufei Fang,Benjamin S. Hsiao,Benjamin Chu,Michael Hadjiargyrou +6 more
TL;DR: The combination of mechanical barriers based on non-woven nanofibrous biodegradable scaffolds and their capability for local delivery of antibiotics increases their desired utility in biomedical applications, particularly in the prevention of post-surgical adhesions and infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Control of degradation rate and hydrophilicity in electrospun non-woven poly(D,L-lactide) nanofiber scaffolds for biomedical applications.
Kwangsok Kim,Meiki Yu,Xinhua Zong,Jonathan B. Chiu,Dufei Fang,Young-Soo Seo,Benjamin S. Hsiao,Benjamin Chu,Michael Hadjiargyrou +8 more
TL;DR: The selection of suitable chemical compositions in conjunction with the non-invasive electrospinning process is useful in the production of a new kind of biodegradable scaffolds suitable for different biomedical applications such as cell storage and delivery as well as prevention of post-surgical adhesion.
Journal ArticleDOI
High flux ultrafiltration membranes based on electrospun nanofibrous PAN scaffolds and chitosan coating
TL;DR: In this paper, a new type of high flux ultrafiltration medium based on an electrospun nanofibrous scaffold (e.g., polyacrylonitrile, PAN) coupled with a thin top layer of hydrophilic, water-resistant, but water-permeable coating was demonstrated.
