Structure and properties of chitosan-containing nanofibers

Nanofibrous material was prepared by needle-free electrospinning from a mixture of chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol of equal masses. The conditions for converting it to an insoluble form by heat treatment were studied. The effectiveness of using chitosan-containing nanofibrous material for absorption...

Description
Summary:Nanofibrous material was prepared by needle-free electrospinning from a mixture of chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol of equal masses. The conditions for converting it to an insoluble form by heat treatment were studied. The effectiveness of using chitosan-containing nanofibrous material for absorption of uranyl ions from processing solutions and the potential of using it in cell engineering and regenerative medicine were demonstrated.
