Biomaterials from Chitosan Processed by Electrospinning

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The purpose of our work is producing nanofibers made of pure chitosan for pharmaceutical and biomedical applications using electrospinning. A nanoporous mat composed of those fibers is a porous hydrophilic support being used for cell cultures. The advantage of this technique is to obtain nanoscale fibers with high surface area to volume ratio. The electrospinning technique is well adapted to nanofibers production with controlled diameter and composition.
