Virus-Based Fabrication of Micro- and Nanofibers Using Electrospinning

Lee, Seung-Wuk, Belcher, Angela M.·2004·Nano Letters

Abstract

Long rod-shaped M13 viruses were used to fabricate one-dimensional (1D) micro- and nanosized diameter fibers by mimicking the spinning process of the silk spider. Liquid crystalline virus suspensions were extruded through the micrometer diameter capillary tubes in a cross-linking solution of glutaraldehyde. Resulting fibers were 10−20 μm in diameter. AFM imaging verified that the molecular long axis of the virus fibers was parallel to the fiber long axis. M13 viruses were suspended in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol and were then electrospun into fibers. After blending with a highly water soluble polymer, polyvinyl pyrolidone (PVP), M13 viruses were spun into continuous uniform virus-blended PVP (virus-PVP) nanofibers. Resulting virus-PVP electrospun fibers maintained their ability to infect bacterial hosts after resuspending in buffer solution.

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.
