Encapsulation of Anticancer Drugs (5-Fluorouracil and Paclitaxel) into Polycaprolactone (PCL) Nanofibers and In Vitro Testing for Sustained and Targeted Therapy.

TL;DR: Continuous decrease of cell density indicated the slow release of cancer drugs from the NFs, which exhibited increased efficacy in comparison to pristine anticancer drugs.

Dripping, jetting and tip streaming

TL;DR: This work presents the theoretical model used to study interfacial flows arising in droplet-based microfluidics, paying attention to three elements commonly present in applications: viscoelasticity, electric fields and surfactants, and considers the relatively scarce theoretical studies on the emergence and stability of tip streaming flows.

Allometric scaling for voltage and current in electrospinning

TL;DR: In this article, an allometric scaling relation between the current and voltage is obtained, based on He Chengtian's inequality, which has millennia history, and applied to the case of electrospinning.

Disintegration of Water Drops in an Electric Field

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a conical interface between two fluids can exist in equilibrium in an electric field, but only when the cone has a semi-vertical angle 49.3$^\circ$.

Bending instability of electrically charged liquid jets of polymer solutions in electrospinning

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed and explained the reasons for the instability of a viscous jet of polymer solution at a pendent droplet, showing that the longitudinal stress caused by the external electric field acting on the charge carried by the jet stabilized the straight jet for some distance.

XX. On the equilibrium of liquid conducting masses charged with electricity

TL;DR: In this article, the equilibrium of liquid conducting masses charged with electricity was studied and the authors proposed a method to solve the problem of finding the equilibrium point of a liquid conducting mass with respect to electricity.

Electrically driven jets

TL;DR: Van Dyke as mentioned in this paper measured the potentials at which viscous jets or drops first appear in a parallel electric field and compared with calculations of A. B. Basset and found that their stability is due to mechanical rather than electrical causes, like a stretched string, which is straight when pulled but bent when pushed.
