Electrospun poly(ethylene oxide)/chitosan nanofibers with cellulose nanocrystals as support for cell culture of 3T3 fibroblasts

Ridolfi, Daniela M.; Lemes, Ana Paula [UNIFESP]; de Oliveira, Sheila [UNIFESP]; Justo, Giselle Z. [UNIFESP]; Palladino, Marcelly V. [UNIFESP]; Duran, Nelson (Springer, 2017)

Chitosan/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) (5:1) nanofibers with cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were produced using an electrospinning technique. The addition of CNCs to the chitosan/PEO solutions allowed the production of uniform ...
