Electrospinning predictions using artificial neural networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Electrospinning is a relatively simple method of producing nanofibres. Currently there is no method to predict the characteristics of electrospun fibres produced from a wide range of polymer/solvent combinations and concentrations without first measuring

Production of chitosan scaffolds by lyophilization or electrospinning: which is better for peripheral nerve regeneration?

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2021
Both lyophilization and electrospinning are commonly used to make chitosan scaffolds. However, it remains unknown which method is better for cell growth. In this study, we established the following groups: (1) lyophilization group—chitosan scaffolds were

Micro helical polymeric structures produced by variable voltage direct electrospinning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Direct near field electrospinning is used to produce very long helical polystyrene microfibers in water. The pitch length of helices can be controlled by changing the applied voltage, allowing to produce both micro springs and microchannels. Using a novel high frequency variable voltage electrospinning method we found the helix formation speed and ...

Compositional and in Vitro Evaluation of Nonwoven Type I Collagen/Poly-dl-lactic Acid Scaffolds for Bone Regeneration [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Functional Biomaterials 2015, 6, 667-686, 2015
Poly-dl-lactic acid (PDLLA) was blended with type I collagen to attempt to overcome the instantaneous gelation of electrospun collagen scaffolds in biological environments. Scaffolds based on blends of type I collagen and PDLLA were investigated for material stability in cell culture conditions (37 {\deg}C; 5% CO2) in which post-electrospinning ...

Self-crimping bicomponent nanofibres electrospun from polyacrylonitrile and elastomeric polyurethane

open access: yes, 2005
Two polymer solutions were brought together via a microfluidic device and subjected to an electrospinning process. The two polymer solutions flowed into the microfluidic channel side-by-side with very little intermixing due to their laminar nature.

Electrospinning of Essential Oils

open access: yesPolymers, 2020
The extensive and sometimes unregulated use of synthetic chemicals, such as drugs, preservatives, and pesticides, is posing big threats to global health, the environment, and food security. This has stimulated the research of new strategies to deal with bacterial infections in animals and humans and to eradicate pests.
