Article Synopsis
  • Researchers produced electrospun mats featuring coelomic fluid (CF) from earthworms integrated with chitosan (Chs) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) for potential wound dressing applications.
  • The CF-infused dressings demonstrated significantly better antibacterial, antioxidant, and cell viability properties compared to control samples without CF.
  • In vivo tests on Wistar albino rats showed that the Chs/PVA/CF dressings enhanced wound healing and re-epithelialization, indicating their effectiveness as a wound dressing material.

A New Mediterranean Flour Moth-Derived Chitosan: Characterization and Co-electrospun Hybrid Fabrication.
Nargess Khosravi Mahdi Zarabi Sajjad Shojai Fatemeh Eshari Ali A Moosavi-Movahedi

Appl Biochem Biotechnol

May 2023

In this study, the chitin of adult Mediterranean flour moth (Ephestia kuheniella) (Cht) was extracted and then converted to chitosan by deacetylation process to achieve the chitosan derived from E. kuheniella (Chs). The new chitosan-based scaffold was produced using the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) co-electrospinning technique.
