Nanofibers have been widely used for tissue engineering. Using charged polymers for the preparation of nanofibers can be useful for the loading of substances or macromolecules. Dual charge nanofiber mats are expected to be able to immobilize both positively charged and negatively charged substances in one versatile nanofiber mat. The purpose of this study was to prepare and characterize dual-charge nanofibers generated from poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/poly-(acrylic acid-co-maleic acid) (PAMA) and chitosan (CS)/PVA. The polymer solutions of PAMA/PVA (1:1.63 w/w) and CS/PVA (1:2.33 w/w) were electrospun to form the nanofibers using dual-jet electrospinning process. The obtained dual-charge nanofibers were thermally crosslinked by leaving the nanofibers in the oven at 110-130 °C for 0.5, 1, 3, 5 h. The appearance of the nanofiber mat was characterized by a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the diameter of nanofibers were determined by an image analysis software (J-micro vision®). The percentage water insolubilization and FT-IR spectra were also determined. The dual-size nanofiber mats with smooth and bead-free fibers were obtained. The diameter of the PAMA/PVA and CS/PVA fibers was 574.54 ± 142.98 nm and 225.69 ± 41.92 nm, respectively. The desirable temperature and time for the crosslink of the dual-charge nanofiber mats was 130 °C for 1 h which could provide a high insolubilization with water capacity of 93.22 ± 2.23%.

This study aimed to evaluate the optimal conditions for crosslinked of PAMA/PVA microneedle (MN) arrays. Poly (acrylic acid-co-maleic acid) (PAMA)/poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) MN arrays were fabricated for the first time using the micromolding technique. The PAMA/PVA MN arrays at the polymer ratio of 1:4 were sharp, homogenous and perfectly formed with an elegant appearance. The successfully crosslinking MN arrays were determined using FTIR and water insolubilization. The results showed that increasing the crosslinking temperature and time, the degree of crosslinking also improved, which results in a decline in water uptake. The optimal crosslinking condition for PAMA/PVA MN arrays was 130°C for 1 h. Moreover, the highest swelling was observed from crosslinked PAMA/PVA MN arrays at 90°C for 0.5 h. These studies suggest that the combination of PAMA and PVA for fabrication of MN arrays could have a great potential to develop both hydrogel and dissolving MN devices for transdermal drug delivery.

The nanocomposite hydrogels were prepared by dispersing of the nanopomegranate seed particles into poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(acrylic acid) blend matrix in an aqueous medium by the solvent casting method. These hydrogels were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra, differential scanning calorimetry, and optical contact angle instruments. The nanopomegranate seed, blend, and hydrogel nanocomposites were tested for microbial activity. In addition, cytocompatibilities of these blend and hydrogel nanocomposites/composites were tested on human lymphocyte with in vitro MTS cell viability assays. Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed that esterification reaction took place among functional groups in the structure of poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(acrylic acid). The hydrophilic properties of all hydrogels decreased with increasing nanopomegranate seed content. The mean diameters of the nanopomegranate seed particles were about 88 nm. Nanopomegranate seed particles demonstrated antibacterial properties against gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, and gram-negative bacteria, Escherichia coli. The lymphocyte viabilities increased after addition of nanopomegranate seeds into the polymer blend. The swelling behavior of blend and hydrogels was dependent on the cross-linking density created by the reaction between poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(acrylic acid) blend and nanopomegranate seed. Scanning electron microscopy images were highly consistent with Fourier transform infrared spectra, differential scanning calorimetry, and antibacterial activity results.
