Coaxial structured collagen–alginate scaffolds: fabrication, physical properties, and biomedical application for skin tissue regeneration

Preparation and properties of PLGA nanofiber membranes reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals

“…The tensile-tension results indicate that reinforcing PLGA nanofiber membranes with CNCs via electrospinning improves the mechanical properties of the nanofiber membranes. Generally, the results imply desirable mechanical properties of the electrospun nanofiber membranes compared to natural skin which possess tensile modulus of 15-150 MPa and ultimate strain of 35-115% in order to be utilized as suitable skin graft [42].…”

Core–shell designed scaffolds for drug delivery and tissue engineering

“…A representative example is the robotic dispensing of core-shell fibers [57]. Different material combinations were used to improve the mechanical properties [57].…”

“…Different material combinations were used to improve the mechanical properties [57]. Hollow fibers can be obtained by selective dissolution of the core or by direct printing of hollow alginate tubes to form scaffolds [58][59] (Fig.…”

Supramolecular Polymer Networks: Preparation, Properties, and Potential

“…As a result, it is desirable to covalently modify alginate to promote cell attachment by coupling of short peptides [189,[192][193][194], fibronectin [195], or collagen [196] to the alginate polymers.…”
