Abstract:

In order to improve the growth and adhesion of cells on electrospun nanofiber scaffolds, a modified electrospinning (ES) device was used to prepare polycaprolactone (PLC)/polyethylene glycol (PEG) composite nanofiber membranes (CNFMs) with large pore sizes, aiming for good biocompatibility. The influences of the composition and mass fraction of spinning solution on the morphology and properties of the CNFMs were investigated, and the optimal spinning parameters were determined. The CNFMs obtained using the modified ES under the optimal conditions were taken as tissue engineering scaffold, and the cytocompatibility of the CNFMs was compared with that of the CNFMs prepared by the traditional ES. The results show that when the blend mass ratio of PLC and PEG is 80∶20 and the mass fraction of spinning solution is 25%, the quality of PCL/PEG CNFMs with large pore sizes is the best. Moreover, compared with the PCL/PEG CNFMs obtained by the traditional ES, the PCL/PEG CNFMs with large pore sizes supply a more conducive environment for the cell growth and proliferation, and are more suitable to be used as tissue engineering scaffold materials.
