Abstract

In this paper, we prepared composite fibers via electrospinning from either W/O or O/W emulsion. SEM images demonstrate the beads-in-string structures in these fibers and proved this technique to be an effective method for microencapsulation. As a practical application, Ca-alginate microspheres, which serve as reservoirs for hydrophilic drugs, were prepared in a reverse emulsion and then incorporated into poly (l-lactic acid) (PLLA) fibers by electrospinning. With the bovine serum albumin (BSA) loaded into the microspheres, the beads-in-string structure thus entrapped hydrophilic proteins in hydrophobic polymeric matrix. In the in vitro release test, BSA, which was released from composite fibers, achieved prolonged release profiles and lower burst release rates than those from naked Ca-alginate microspheres. In comparison with other well-established techniques to prepare microcapsules, such as solvent evaporation and spray-drying techniques, emulsion electrospinning features partly competing, partly complementary characteristics. Extension to other emulsion systems will be able to fabricate new types of functional structures.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
