In the current study, we hypothesized that the electrospun scaffold chitosan (CS)/polycaprolactone (PCL)/titanium dioxide (TiO₂) could be prepared by combining CS, PCL, and TiO₂ nanoparticles (TiO₂ NPs) using an electrospinning technique for wound dressing applications. The CS/PCL/TiO₂ electrospun scaffold was prepared and characterized by UV-Vis, SEM, TEM, FTIR, and XRD analyses. Based on the UV-Vis analysis, the incorporation of CS/PCL on the surface of TiO₂ NPs affected their optical properties. Further, CS/PCL and CS/PCL/TiO₂ were found to have uniform distribution in fiber diameter with no bead morphology, as confirmed by SEM. The XRD spectrum of the CS/PCL/TiO₂ revealed that the TiO₂ NPs were adequately mixed with the CS/PCL solution, exhibiting the planes of TiO₂ peaks (112), (105), (204), (116), and (301), which aligned well with the lattice structure. The antibacterial activity of CS/PCL/TiO₂ against and was evaluated using the zone of inhibition method. By testing the cytocompatibility of CS/PCL/TiO₂ this dressing was found to have a less toxic nature. In addition, wound healing studies showed that the dressing prepared with the CS/PCL/TiO₂ electrospun scaffold improved wound healing compared to that prepared with CS/PCL alone. The above results strongly support the use of CS/PCL/TiO₂ electrospun scaffold as an effective dressing for wound healing.
在当前的研究中,我们假设通过电纺技术将壳聚糖(CS)/聚己内酯(PCL)/二氧化钛(TiO₂)与 CS、PCL 和 TiO₂纳米粒子(TiO₂ NPs)结合在一起,可以制备 CS/PCL/TiO₂电纺支架,用于伤口敷料应用。通过 UV-Vis、SEM、TEM、FTIR 和 XRD 分析对 CS/PCL/TiO₂电纺支架进行了制备和表征。基于 UV-Vis 分析,CS/PCL 对 TiO₂ NPs 表面的结合影响了它们的光学性质。此外,CS/PCL 和 CS/PCL/TiO₂被发现具有均匀的纤维直径分布,没有珠状形态,这通过 SEM 得到了证实。CS/PCL/TiO₂的 XRD 谱表明,TiO₂ NPs 与 CS/PCL 溶液充分混合,表现出 TiO₂峰的平面(112)、(105)、(204)、(116)和(301),与晶格结构吻合良好。通过抑菌圈法评估 CS/PCL/TiO₂对 和 的抗菌活性。通过测试 CS/PCL/TiO₂ 的细胞相容性,发现这种敷料具有较低的毒性。此外,伤口愈合研究表明,与单独使用 CS/PCL 制备的敷料相比,用 CS/PCL/TiO₂电纺支架制备的敷料可改善伤口愈合。上述结果有力地支持了将 CS/PCL/TiO₂电纺支架用作有效的伤口愈合敷料的使用。
