Solid dispersions of ketoprofen in nanofibers were prepared using electrospinning process with polyvinylpyrrolidone as the filament-forming polymer. Results from differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and fourier-transform infrared suggested that ketoprofen was well distributed in the polymer nanofibers in an amorphous solid dispersion state due to the hydrogen bonding between them. In vitro wetting and dissolution tests showed that the nanofibers could absorb water from the wet papers and wetted within several seconds, and ketoprofen could be exhausted within 30 seconds. Electrospinning is a useful process for the preparation of solid dispersions. 相似文献
Alginate, a natural polysaccharide that has shown great potential as a cell scaffold for the regeneration of many tissues, has only been nominally explored as an electrospun biomaterial due to cytotoxic chemicals that have typically been used during nanofiber formation and crosslinking. Alginate cannot be electrospun by itself and is often co‐spun with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). In this work, a cell adhesive peptide (GRGDSP) modified alginate (RA) and unmodified alginate (UA) were blended with PEO at different concentrations and blending ratios, and then electrospun to prepare uniform nanofibers. The ability of electrospun RA scaffolds to support human dermal fibroblast cell attachment, spreading, and subsequent proliferation was greatly enhanced on the adhesion ligand‐modified nanofibers, demonstrating the promise of this electrospun polysaccharide material with defined nanoscale architecture and cell adhesive properties for tissue regeneration applications.
Summary: PANCMPCs containing phospholipid side moieties were electrospun into nanofibers with a mean diameter of 90 nm. Field emission SEM was used to characterize the morphologies of the nanofibers. These phospholipid‐modified nanofibers were explored as supports for enzyme immobilization due to the characteristics of excellent biocompatibility, high surface/volume ratio, and porosity, which were beneficial to the catalytic efficiency and activity of immobilized enzymes. Lipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized on these nanofibers by adsorption. Preliminary results indicated that the properties of the immobilized lipase on these phospholipid‐modified nanofibers were greatly promising.

Electrospinning is a technique that allows the fabrication of continuous fibers with diameters down to a few nanometers. This technique provides a convenient and versatile method for preparing hierarchical nanofibers from a rich variety of materials that include almost all soluble or fusible polymers. The polymers can be chemically modified and can also be tailored with additives. The method provides access to entirely new materials. Until now, electrospinning is also widely being applied in laboratory and industry. 相似文献
Hierarchical CaCo2O4 nanofibers (denoted as CCO‐NFs) with a unique hierarchical structure have been prepared by a facile electrospinning method and subsequent calcination in air. The as‐prepared CCO‐NFs are composed of well‐defined ultrathin nanoplates that arrange themselves in an oriented manner to form one‐dimensional (1D) hierarchical structures. The controllable formation process and possible formation mechanism are also discussed. Moreover, as a demonstration of the functional properties of such hierarchical architecture, the 1D hierarchical CCO‐NFs were investigated as materials for lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) anode; they not only delivers a high reversible capacity of 650 mAh g?1 at a current of 100 mA g?1 and with 99.6 % capacity retention over 60 cycles, but they also show excellent rate capability with respect to counterpart nanoplates‐in‐nanofibers and nanoplates. The high specific surface areas as well as the unique feature of hierarchical structures are probably responsible for the enhanced electrochemical performance. Considering their facile preparation and good lithium storage properties, 1D hierarchical CCO‐NFs will hold promise in practical LIBs. 相似文献
A simple method was developed for the preparation of ordered mesoporous silica–carbon composite nanofibers (OMSCFs). The OMSCFs exhibited high carbon content, continuously long fibrous properties, uniform accessible mesopores, and a large surface area. The OMSCFs were also found to have ion‐exchange capacity. On the basis of the size‐exclusion effect of the mesopores and mixed‐mode hydrophobic/ion‐exchange interactions, the OMSCFs were applied for rapid enrichment of endogenous peptides by using a miniaturized solid‐phase extraction format. The adsorption mechanism was studied, and the eluting solution was optimized with standard peptide/protein solutions and protein digests. Employing a successive three‐step elution strategy, followed by LC‐MS/MS analysis, led to excellent performance with this approach in the extraction and prefractionation of peptides from human serum. 相似文献
Hybrid nanofibers from chitosan or N‐carboxyethylchitosan (CECh) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were prepared by electrospinning using HCOOH as a solvent. AgNPs were synthesized in situ in the spinning solution. HCOOH slowed down the cross‐linking of the polysaccharides with GA enabling the reactive electrospinning in the presence of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). EDX analyses showed that AgNPs are uniformly dispersed in the nanofibers. Since AgNPs hampered the cross‐linking of chitosan and CECh with GA in the hybrid fibers, the imparting of water insolubility to the fibers was achieved at a second stage using GA vapors. The surface of chitosan/PEO/AgNPs nanofibers was enriched in chitosan and 15 wt.‐% of the incorporated AgNPs were on the fiber surface as evidenced by XPS.
