Investigation of Chitosan Film Degradation in Tissue Engineering Applications

Abstract: In this paper, the biological and physical properties of chitosan, a potential polysaccharide resource, were investigated. The proposed film was synthesised by mixing chitosan (CS) solution and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) using solvent casting. The modified chitosan/PVA films were then subjected to analysis by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), in which intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the molecules of CS and PVA was clearly demonstrated. The swelling degree of chitosan along with the contact a… Show more

“…Aside from that, the alkyl group at 2925 cm −1 and peaks at 1323 cm −1 and 1085 cm −1 were observed due to the -O-H in-plane vibrations and -C-O out-of-plane bonding, respectively, along with shifting in the -N-H bending vibration, from 1500 cm −1 of amide II to 2350 cm −1 in the CS/PVA blended film illuminating the interaction between the -O-H and -N-H groups of CS with the -O-H group of PVA [7]. As shown in Figure 2, the interactions between the chitosan and PVA in the mix, namely the hydrophobic side chain aggregation and intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding, are responsible for the improved characteristics [19].…”

“…For the contact angle test, a drop of water at a volume of 4 μl was poured on the surface of the sample with at least three repetitions, while the images of the water droplet were recorded on the sample surface. The degradability of electrospinning scaffolds was measured according to the standard protocol (ASTM F1635), 17 while, the dry electrospinning samples were cut into 10 × 10 mm dimensions and were weighed to the nearest four decimal places (− W 0 ). Each sample was placed in falcons containing 20 ml of PBS solution (pH = 7.4) and the falcons were placed in an incubator at 37°C and replaced with a new solution every 4 days.…”
