Fabrication and characterization of costmary essential oil loaded salep-polyvinyl alcohol fast-dissolving electrospun nanofibrous mats

Electrospun Cactus Mucilage/Poly(vinyl alcohol) Nanofibers as a Novel Wall Material for Dill Seed Essential Oil (Anethum graveolens L.) Encapsulation: Release and Antibacterial Activities

“…This proves that the oil is enclosed in the CM-blend PVA nanofiber structure. These findings are in agreement with the other studies in the literature. ,,,, …”

“…The effects of hydrogen bonding and interactions between polymers lead to broad and uniform nanospins without bead defects during electrospinning . Similar morphology has been observed in many other electrospun nanofibers loaded with different essential oil sources, such as PVA/cinnamon essential oil/β-cyclodextrin electrospun nanofibers, Polyvinylpyrrolidone/cinnamon essential oil, PVA/gelatin nanospun loaded with thyme essential oil, avocado oil in ultrafine zein nanofibers, electrospun PVA/chitosan nanofibers functionalized with cabreuva essential oil, zein electrospun nanofibers loaded with cumin essential oil, and costmary essential oil loaded salep-PVA electrospun …”

“…45 Similar morphology has been observed in many other electrospun nanofibers loaded with different essential oil sources, such as PVA/cinnamon essential oil/β-cyclodextrin electrospun nanofibers, 46 Polyvinylpyrrolidone/cinnamon essential oil, 21 PVA/gelatin nanospun loaded with thyme essential oil, 44 avocado oil in ultrafine zein nanofibers, 47 electrospun PVA/chitosan nanofibers functionalized with cabreuva essential oil, 13 zein electrospun nanofibers loaded with cumin essential oil, 22 and costmary essential oil loaded salep-PVA electrospun. 20 AFM is a useful tool for studying the topography of the electrospun nanofibers to further confirm that they are made from CM-blend PVA and emulsion. It can be seen that the AFM images (Figure 4) are in good agreement with the obtained SEM micrographs, in terms of fiber structures.…”

“…These findings are in agreement with the other studies in the literature. 15,20,46,49,57 3.4. Thermal Properties.…”

“…These emulsions can then be electrospun as spinning solutions. Meanwhile, other essential oils have been loaded into electrospun nanofibers, citing thyme essential oil, 19 costmary essential oil, 20 cinnamon essential oil, 21 orange essential oil, 18 cabreuva essential oil, 13 and cumin essential oil. 22 In this case, dill seed essential oil (DSEO) was microencapsulated by emulsion electrospinning, and for this reason, cactus mucilage (CM) is a fascinating and interesting core−shell material for electrospun nanofiber production.…”
