This study aimed to develop polylactic acid (PLA)-based membranes incorporating tramadol (TMD) using air jet spinning (AJS), ensuring stable physicochemical properties and biocompatibility. Two groups were fabricated: 10% PLA membranes (control) and 10% PLA membranes loaded with TMD in an 80:1 ratio (experimental). Characterization included scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-VIS), and biocompatibility assays with human osteoblasts using resazurin, crystal violet staining, and 5-chloromethylfluorescein diacetate for fluorescence microscopy. SEM revealed a homogeneous, randomly distributed fiber pattern, with diameters under 5 µm and no structural voids. DSC and TGA indicated that TMD was uniformly incorporated, increased the thermal capacity, and slightly lowered the onset and inflection degradation temperatures. FT-IR confirmed the chemical compatibility of TMD with PLA, showing no structural alterations. UV-VIS detected sustained TMD release over 72 h. Biocompatibility tests showed no cytotoxic effects; cell viability and proliferation in TMD-loaded membranes were comparable to controls. Statistical analysis used ANOVA and Wilcoxon tests. 10% PLA membranes loaded with TMD at an 80:1 ratio exhibited stable physicochemical characteristics and favorable biocompatibility, supporting their potential use in drug delivery systems.
本研究旨在利用空气喷射纺丝(AJS)技术制备含有曲马多(TMD)的聚乳酸(PLA)基膜,确保其具有稳定的物理化学性质和生物相容性。制备了两组膜:10%PLA膜(对照组)和按80:1比例负载TMD的10%PLA膜(实验组)。表征方法包括扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、差示扫描量热法(DSC)、热重分析(TGA)、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)、紫外可见光谱(UV-VIS),以及使用刃天青、结晶紫染色和5-氯甲基荧光素二乙酸酯进行荧光显微镜观察,对人成骨细胞进行生物相容性检测。SEM显示纤维图案均匀、随机分布,直径小于5µm且无结构空隙。DSC和TGA表明TMD被均匀掺入,增加了热容量,并略微降低了起始降解温度和拐点降解温度。FT-IR证实了TMD与PLA的化学相容性,未显示结构改变。UV-VIS检测到TMD在72小时内持续释放。生物相容性测试显示无细胞毒性作用;负载TMD的膜中的细胞活力和增殖与对照组相当。统计分析采用方差分析和Wilcoxon检验。按80:1比例负载TMD的10%PLA膜表现出稳定的物理化学特性和良好的生物相容性,支持其在药物递送系统中的潜在应用。
