Optimization of Electrospun Surfaces Containing Functional Bioadditives for Wound Dressing Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study develops electrospun wound dressings using 8% PCL with 0–6% aloe vera (AV). SEM reveals uniform fibrous structures with thinner fibers (0.318–0.882 μm) as AV increases. FTIR confirms the presence of both components and absence of solvent residues. Antibacterial tests against E. coli and S. aureus reveal inhibition zones of 9–11 mm, with 6% AV showing the most substantial effect.
