The present invention relates to electrospun fibers comprising i) a hydrophilic polymer that is soluble in a first solvent, ii) a bioadhesive substance that is slightly soluble in said first solvent, iii) optionally, a drug substance.

A fiber can be made having a structure with an axial core and a coating layer. The fiber can have a polymer core and one or two layers surrounding the core. The fine fiber can be made from a polymer material and a resinous aldehyde composition such that the general structure of the fiber has a polymer core surrounded by at least a layer of the resinous aldehyde composition.

Nanoparticle compositions, electrospun nonwoven material compositions, and methods of making the same are disclosed. The nanoparticles may be made by electrospinning a composition including a sacrificial polymer and first and second ion species into fibers, and decomposing at least a portion of the sacrificial polymer. The nanoparticles may include an electroactive compound. The nanoparticles may include a catalytically active compound. The nanoparticles may further be included in a composition prepared into a nonwoven material. The nonwoven material may be used to prepare battery compositions. The battery compositions may include an electrode that includes the nanoparticles.

A method for generating a cell support interface for use in a three dimensional cell culture environment, may include electrospinning a mat having an epithelial support layer configured to create an intimate coupling between the epithelial cell and a porous matrix, including a first layer and a second layer, wherein the first layer is formed using a first solution at a first viscosity level and the second layer is formed using a second solution at a second viscosity level different from the first viscosity level.

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of bone repair and provides a berberine/mineralized collagen-based composite membrane as well as a preparation method and an application thereof. The composite membrane of the present disclosure includes a berberine nanofiber membrane and a mineralized collagen membrane disposed on a unilateral surface of the berberine nanofiber membrane. In the present disclosure, the mineralized collagen with biomimetic mineralization capacity is combined with a Chinese materia medica monomer, berberine, the resulting bilayer composite membrane has a better effect on promoting osteogenesis; in addition, a novel dosage form of berberine is constructed. The present disclosure employs an electrospinning method to prepare a berberine nanofiber membrane, the berberine nanofibers are received by the mineralized collagen membrane, or after the berberine nanofiber membrane is obtained, a mineralized collagen membrane is prepared by applying on the surface of the berberine nanofiber membrane.

A method of making a ceramic fiber tow and the system regarding the same may be included. The method may include commingling a plurality of ceramic fibers with a fugitive fiber to form a single ceramic fiber tow. The fugitive fiber may be positioned between at least two ceramic fibers included in the single ceramic fiber tow. The method may further include forming a porous ceramic preform including at least the single ceramic fiber tow. The method may further include removing the fugitive fiber from the ceramic fiber tow leaving a space between at least two ceramic fibers of the single ceramic fiber tow. The method may further include replacing the spaces between ceramic fibers included in the ceramic fiber tows with a ceramic matrix.

The present invention relates to electrospun fibers comprising
