“…Intensive study of PEO behavior during the electrospinning process has been undertaken due to this fact and because of the excellent biodegradability, biocompatibility, and non-toxicity. These attributes also reflect PEO nanofiber applications in biomedicine and the food industry [7][8][9][10] apart from the above already mentioned improvements in spinnability in combination with chitin or chitosan [11][12][13][14], keratin [15,16], silk [17,18] and other materials.…”

† This paper is an expanded version of "Electrospinning of poly(ethylene oxide) solutions-Quantitative relations between mean nanofibre diameter, concentration, molecular weight, and viscosity " published in Abstract: The quality of electrospun poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) nanofibrous mats are subject to a variety of input parameters. In this study, three parameters were chosen: molecular weight of PEO (100, 300, 600, and 1000 kg/mol), PEO concentration (in distilled water), and shear viscosity of PEO solution. Two relations free of any adjustable parameters were derived. The first, describing the initial stage of an electrospinning process expressing shear viscosity using PEO molecular weight and concentration. The second, expressing mean nanofiber diameter using concentration and PEO molecular weight. Based on these simple mathematical relations, it is possible to control the mean nanofiber diameter during an electrospinning process.

“…Kuntzler et al [56] produced nanofibers from a 3% chitosan/2% PEO blend containing 1% phenolic compounds. The nanofibers had an average diameter of 214 ± 37 nm, and the potential antibacterial activity of the nanofibers was confirmed by their inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 (6:4 ± 1:1 mm) and Escherichia coli ATCC 25972 (5:5 ± 0:4 mm).…”

Electrospinning has been recognized as an efficient technique for the fabrication of polymer nanofibers. Various polymers have been successfully electrospun into ultrafine fibers in recent years. These electrospun biopolymer nanofibers have potential applications for wound dressing based upon their unique properties. In this paper, a comprehensive review is presented on the researches and developments related to electrospun biopolymer nanofibers including processing, structure and property, characterization, and applications. Information of those polymers together with their processing condition for electrospinning of ultrafine fibers has been summarized in the paper. The application of electrospun natural biopolymer fibers in wound dressings was specifically discussed. Other issues regarding the technology limitations, research challenges, and future trends are also discussed.

“…The inhibition zone was 6:4 AE 1:1 mm and 5:5 AE 0:4 mm for S. aureus and E. coli, respectively. Bui et al 42 fabricated polycaprolactone (PCL) nano¯bers-loaded curcumin (Cur) and polyethyleneglycol (PEG) using electrospinning. The average diameter of Cur-loaded PCL nano¯bers was 553 nm and the nano¯bers were uniform, distribution from 300 nm to 1200 nm.…”

Bacterial infections are a major cause of chronic infections. Thus, antibacterial material is an urgent need in clinics. Antibacterial nanofibers, with expansive surface area, enable efficient incorporation of antibacterial agents. Meanwhile, structure similar to the extracellular matrix can accelerate cell growth. Electrospinning, the most widely used technique to fabricate nanofiber, is often used in many biomedical applications including drug delivery, regenerative medicine, wound healing and so on. Thus, this review provides an overview of all recently published studies on the development of electrospun antibacterial nanofibers in wound dressings and tissue medicinal fields. This reviewer begins with a brief introduction of electrospinning process and then discusses electrospun fibers by incorporating various types of antimicrobial agents used as in wound dressings and tissue. Finally, we finish with conclusions and further perspectives on electrospun antibacterial nanofibers as 2D biomedicine materials.
