Antimicrobial Electrospun Nanofibrous Mat Based on Essential Oils for Biomedical Applications.

Polyurethane (PU) nanofibers containing three different essential oils (teatree, cinnamon bark, clove) were produced by electrospinning method. Morphology of the electrospun nanofibrous was studied using Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM). We were studying to reveal that different concentration of essential oil display different mechanical properties for the nanofibrous mat. The antibacterial properties of the nanofibrous loaded with the essential oil were studied quantitatively and qualitatively using three strains (). The antibacterial evaluation showed higher antibacterial activity for nanofibrous loaded with essential oil compares to control sample. cell culture were proceed to confirm biocompatibility of the nanofibrous contained essential oils. In this study, we present a comparison of the samples for each of the experiment based on the derived test items and test methods. The results of this study demonstrate that the proposed nanofibrous mat loaded with essential oil will be a promising future material for different biomedical applications.
