Controlled delivery of fibroblast growth factor-9 from biodegradable poly(ester amide) fibers for building functional neovasculature.

TL;DR: This study supports the premise of controlled delivery of FGF9 from PEA electrospun fibers for potential therapeutic angiogenesis applications by demonstrating controlled release of F GF9 over 28 days with limited burst effect while preserving FGF 9 bioactivity.

Chitosan nanofibrous scaffold fabricated via electrospinning: the effect of processing parameters on the nanofiber morphology

TL;DR: In this paper, the morphology and diameter of chitosan nanofibers were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, and it was shown that TCD directly affects spinnability and fiber diameter and at a very small distance (5 cm) droplets were formed due to electrospraying.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
