제목 Multi-functional poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogel microparticle containing nanofiber microarchitectures
초록 A simple method to generate well-defined microscopic architectures composed of electrospun nanofibers is reported and their potential applications to biomedical fields were studied. The photopatterning of polyethylene glycol (PEG) hydrogel on electrospun polycarprolactone (PCL) nanofibers leads to the formation of two different microdomains in nanofibrous mats: a bare nanofiber region and a hydrogel-entrapped nanofiber region. The selective dissolution of bare nanofibers with an organic solvent enables the localization of PCL nanofibers within the hydrogel microstructures. Microparticles are ultimately obtained, the size and shape of which can be easily controlled with proper photomask designs. We also expect that the PEG hydrogel can also provide a protective environment for the nanofibers by preventing the non-specific adsorption of various molecules onto the nanofibers and improving the biocompatibility of microarchitectured nanofibers.
