Electrospun β-carotene–loaded SPI:PVA fiber mats produced by emulsion-electrospinning as bioactive coatings for food packaging

TL;DR: In this paper, an emulsion electrospinning was used to develop an active internal coating for food packaging applications, where the antioxidant molecule β-carotene, was encapsulated in a mixture of soy protein isolate (SPI) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) which was directly electrospun onto a polyhydroxybutyrate-co-valerate (PHB92/PHV8) film.

Preparation and characterization of electrospun poly(lactic acid)-chitosan core-shell nanofibers with a new solvent system

TL;DR: The PLA-CS core-shell nanofibers showed a two-stage release behavior of curcumin drug; an initial burst release followed by a sustained release, when the drug was incorporated in the core layer of nan ofibers; hence it has potential applications in some biomedical areas such as wound dressing and drug delivery.
