Fabrication and characterization of cinnamaldehyde loaded polysaccharide composite nanofiber film as potential antimicrobial packaging material

TL;DR: In this paper, the pullulan/ethyl cellulose-cinnamaldehyde (CA) composite nanofiber films were fabricated via the electrospinning technique and the scanning electron microscopy observation showed that the CA loaded nanofibers possessed homogenous morphologies, and the average diameter of fibers ranged from 231.9-203.4 nm.

Electrospun Phospholipid Fibers as Micro-Encapsulation and Antioxidant Matrices

TL;DR: Electrospun phospholipid microfibers exhibited antioxidant properties which increased after the encapsulation of both curcumin and vanillin, and release studies in aqueous media revealed that the phenolic bioactives were released mainly due to swelling of the phospholIPid fiber matrix over time.

Polymer nanofibers assembled by electrospinning

TL;DR: Electrospinning is a process by which polymer nanofibers (with diameter lower than 100 nm and lengths up to kilometres) can be produced using an electrostatically driven jet of polymer solution (or polymer melt) as mentioned in this paper.
