Article Abstract

Chitosan, a sustainable and highly abundant animal-derived biopolymer, possesses versatile properties, such as solubility, film-forming ability, viscosity, ion binding, and antimicrobial qualities, which are suitable for biomedical applications. Due to its charged nature, chitosan is a lucrative biopolymer for scaffold fabrication, especially for bone-tissue engineering applications, using the electrospinning method, which is an industrially suitable, scalable, and swift method for fabricating porous nanocomposite structures. Despite a lot of research being conducted on chitosan-based electrospun materials for bone tissue engineering, the research on this topic has not been thoroughly reviewed. This review article aims to fill this knowledge gap and provides an in-depth discussion of the research on this topic. To start with, a brief overview of bone tissue engineering has been provided, followed by the properties of chitosan, which make it an important biopolymer for this application. Also, the important factors that must be considered while electrospinning chitosan, especially considering its application in bone tissue engineering, have been debated. Further, the type of chitosan-based electrospun material has been discussed along with the recent advancements in this research area. Finally, a brief perspective on the future of this technology has been provided.

Wound healing is a dynamic physiological process essential for regenerating skin and maintaining coherence in hypodermic tissues. Chitosan-based electrospun nanofibre wound dressings show great promise for expediting the integration of skin and tissues due to their nano-topographic, biodegradable, biocompatible, and antimicrobial properties. However, their moderate bactericidal efficacy and limited mechanical strength hinder their widespread clinical application.

Electrospun nanofibers made from chitosan are promising materials for surgical wound dressings due to their non-toxicity and biocompatibility. However, the antibacterial activity of chitosan is limited by its poor water solubility under physiological conditions. This study addresses this issue by producing electrospun nanofibers mainly from natural compounds, including chitosan and quaternized chitosan, which enhance both its solubility for electrospinning and the antibacterial activity of the resulting electrospun nanofibers.

Chitosan-based nanofibers with excellent properties are attractive materials for specific industrial applications of contemporary interest. This work aims to fabricate functional nanofibers based on poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan (CS) with an antioxidant and model drug molecule, gallic acid (GA), by electrospinning, followed by cross-linking through glutaraldehyde (PVA-CS-GAs). PVA-CS-GAs were electrospun at two different concentrations by the adjustment of the CS feeding ratio.
