This in vitro study developed magnetic electrospun nanofibers for bone regeneration and evaluated osteogenic and antibacterial properties. Functionalization with ATP and Mg increased mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic marker readouts compared with unmodified fibers. The authors report that…

This in vitro study developed carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC)-grafted polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofiber scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. It reports mineralization and osteonectin expression in adipose mesenchymal stem cells cultured on the scaffolds, suggesting osteoinductive properties of the grafted CMC. The…

Jan 1, 2010
This engineering study describes a microwave-assisted method to synthesize polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers. Reported yields under microwave irradiation were similar to conventional synthesis but achieved in minutes rather than hours. Structural and morphological characterization (FTIR, Raman, SEM, TEM) reportedly…
