BIODEGRADABLE NANOFIBERS AND IMPLEMENTATIONS THEREOF.

摘要

A fibrous product is described that comprises biodegradable fibers on a substrate. The fibers originate from a deposition solution that comprises a protein-based component and a carrier polymer component, each configured so that the resulting deposition solution can be deposited using electro-deposition techniques. In one embodiment, the proteins in the deposition solution are denatured in a manner that modifies the viscosity of the resulting deposition solution so that the deposition solution is compatible with electro-spinning.
