Alginate-gelatin based nanocomposite hydrogel scaffold incorporated with bioactive glass nanoparticles and fragmented nanofibers promote osteogenesis: From design to in vitro studies.

The current study proposes fragmented nanofibers of polycaprolactone (FNF) with bioactive glass nanoparticles (nBG) incorporated into a polymeric matrix of alginate-gelatin for the creation of a hydrogel scaffold. Four groups were prepared: control, bioactive glass containing scaffold (BG), fragmented nanofibers with bioactive glass scaffold (FNF(PCL) + BG), and fragmented composite nanofibers scaffold (FNF (PCL + BG)). FNF (PCL + BG) scaffolds revealed a more controlled degradation rate, with approximately 20 % degradation occurring after 28 compared.

Keratin- and VEGF-Incorporated Honey-Based Sponge-Nanofiber Dressing: An Ideal Construct for Wound Healing.

To overcome the drawbacks of single-layered wound dressings, bilayer dressings are now introduced as an alternative to achieve effective and long-term treatment. Here, a bilayer dressing composed of electrospun nanofibers in the bottom layer (BL) and a sponge structure as the top layer (TL) is presented. Hydrophilic poly(acrylic acid) (PAAc)-honey (Hny) with interconnected pores of 76.
