Electrospinning of nanofibers from non-polymeric systems: electrospun nanofibers from native cyclodextrins.

TL;DR: This study has successfully performed electrospinning of nanofibers from two of the native cyclodextrins (CDs); α-CD and β-CD, and found the existence of CD aggregates via hydrogen bonding and very high solution viscosity and viscoelastic solid-like behavior of CD solutions were found to be the key factors for obtaining bead-free nanofibia from CDs.

Electrospun PLGA–silk fibroin–collagen nanofibrous scaffolds for nerve tissue engineering

TL;DR: Electrospinning polymer blending is a simple and effective approach for fabricating novel biocomposite nanofibrous scaffolds and results confirmed that PLGA-SF-COL scaffolds particularly the one that contains 50% PLGA, 25% silk fibroin, and 25% collagen is more suitable for nerve tissue engineering compared to PLGA nanofiber scaffolds.
