Quantitative approaches of nanofibers organization for biomedical patterned nanofibrous scaffold by image analysis

Abstract: This study proposes a novel design of a laboratory built static collector using the 3D printing technology. This new collector produces aligned-to-random nanofibers in nanofibrous scaffold through electrospinning process. A design of experiment (DOE), based on response surface, analyzes the effect of the main process parameters; concentration, voltage, and distance; on the responses diameter and orientation. A quantifying approach has been used to investigate the orientation of nanofibers in the produced patte… Show more

“…The properties of NFs produced by electrospinning technique are widely dependent on different parameters classified to three categories of solution, process, and ambient parameters. Thus, combination of variable parameters with different levels through a design of experiments (DOEs) can be beneficial to find optimized and most influential parameters in order to obtain the desirable morphology and organization of NFs . In this study, the experimental design was performed based on Taguchi's mixed‐level parameter design (L16).…”

“…By combining the gap technique (the electrospun collector composed of two stapler-shaped metal frames that are placed next to each other with an air gap between them) and 3D printing methods, highly oriented and random zones of electrospun nanofibers were produced onto a static 3D collector made by a 3D printing technique, achieving accurate control of the electrospun nanofiber structure using the patterned collectors. [80,83] The geometry of the collectors can also influence the morphology, porosity, thermal properties, and mechanical properties of electrospun scaffolds. Electrospun scaffolds with custom-tailored topography were fabricated by 3D-printed collectors with different essential geometrical elements, and the structure of electrospun scaffolds can be optimized depending on their demands.…”

“…By having a 3D model, the scaffolds can imitate eye structures such as the cornea. These scaffolds also allow the entry of collagen into the ECM. On the other hand braided/woven/knitted yarn networks, aligned nanofiber yarns, and composites made of fibrous yarns and hydrogels displayed potential in stimulating the differentiation of MSCs to anisotropic soft tissues. For heart valve engineering it can be possible to produce scaffolds using woven fabric as well as a bioactive hydrogel .…”
