| Title: | Biodegradable and bioabsorbable biomaterials and keratin fibrous articles for medical applications | Authors: | Li, Y Li, J Hu, J Li, L |
Issue Date: | 14-Aug-2012 | Source: | US Patent 8,242,073 B2. Washington, DC: US Patent and Trademark Office, 2012. | Abstract: | The present invention relates to a process of making biodegradable and/or bioabsorbable biomaterials and keratin nonwoven fibrous articles by electrospinning fibers from a blend of biomaterials and keratin dissolved in organic solvents includes generating a high voltage electric field between oppositely charged biomaterials and keratin fluid in a syringe with a capillary tip and a metallic collection roller and causing a jet to flow to the roller as solvent evaporates and collecting fibrous membranes or scaffolds on the roller. Keratin increased the cell affinity of biomaterial scaffolds which have potential medical applications. | Rights: | Assignee: The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. |
