High-content keratin/poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) (90/10) blend nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning combined with a two-step cross-linking process. The keratin/PEO aqueous solution was firstly mixed with ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE) as cross-linker and then electrospun into nanofibers. The resulting nanofibrous mats were cross-linked with EGDE vapor to decrease the solubility of nanofibers in water. The morphologies and properties of electrospun fibers were investigated by SEM, FTIR, TG, XRD, and contact angle testing, respectively. The results showed that the morphologies of nanofibers were uniform at the fiber average diameter of 300 nm with negligible bead defects by adding EGDE to keratin/PEO solutions. The cross-linking results showed that EGDE vapor could improve the hydrophobic property of blended nanofibers. The crystallinity of the keratin/PEO blend nanofiber mat increased from 13.14% for the uncross-linked sample to 21.54% and 35.15% for the first cross-linked and second cross-linked samples, respectively. Free defect nanofiber mats with high keratin content producing from this two-step cross-linking process are particularly promising for tissue engineering and cell-seeded scaffold.

Nanofiber Mats

Nanosilver particle has been used in the nanofiber mats by mixing the nanosilver with the spinning solution for improving the antibacterial property. Although studies have shown that the antibacterial property of nanofiber mats gets increasing, the higher silver content and the larger released resistance of nanosilver from nanofiber mats are obvious. Here, the electrospinning-combined postdeposition method was used to prepare the nanosilver/sericin/poly(ethylene oxide) (Ag/SS/PEO) nanofiber mats and the bacterial reduction rates againstStaphylococcus aureus(S. aureus) andEscherichia coli(E. coli) were analyzed. We found that the Ag/SS/PEO nanofiber mats were excellent antibacterial properties at the lower silver content and the bacterial reduction rates againstS. aureusandE. coliall reached above 99.99%. Our data suggests that the antibacterial property can be improved by introducing the electrospinning-combined postdeposition method.

Morphology And Mechanical Properties

In this study, biocompatible polymer poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), gelation (denatured collagen) and nanometer silver colloid was added to the electrospinnning solution of alginate sodium to get anti-bacterial nanofiber mats. The morphology and mechanical properties of the electrospun mats have been investigated. Smooth fibers with diameters around 300 nm were obtained from 4.0 % solutions of varied alginate/PEO/gelation proportion. The anti-water property of the electrospun mats has been improved by crosslink with glutaraldehyde acetone solution and aqueous calcium chloride and ethanol.
