Fabrication, Characterization and Drug Release Property of Protein Encapsulated Emulsion Electrospun Nanofibers

Abstract:

Emulsion electrospinning is a novel and straightforward tequnique to fabricate core-shell structured nanofibers on the basis of conventional electrospinning method. In this paper, the emulsion electrospunnanofibers were electrospun, and further characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Laser confocal scanning microscopy (LCSM) and water contact angle. The drug release property of emulsion electrospunnaofibers up to 28 days were recorded and analyzed. The biocompatibility of the emulsion electrospunnanofibers were evaluated and confirmed by MTS assay.
