Antimicrobial activity of chitosan nanoparticles
Chitosan is a deacetylated chitin which is found naturally, particularly in fungal cell walls and crustacean shells. Chitosan is biocompatible and fully biodegradable and is extensively analyzed for antimicrobial property. Chitosan has also been explored

This study presents micropleated filters manufactured by needleless electrospinning. Nanofibers are deposited onto uniaxially pre‐stretched substrates that contract upon release, forming densely packed micropleats. This architecture increases effective surface area without enlarging the filter size, achieving quality factors comparable to those of ...

Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...
