Preparation and application of chitosan-based nano-fiber

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method and application of chitosan-based nano-fiber, in which the preparation method includes the following steps that the drugs or bio-activator such as growth factors are dissolved or dispersed in the chitisan adipic acid solution with the concentration of 0.01% to 3% (g/ml), and then the gelatin or collagen are added to dissolve. The biodegradable polyanion is dissolved in the de-ionized water and in preaparation to be the solution with the same concentration as that of the chitisan. The mixed chitisan solution is slowly added into the polyanion solution. After stirred uniformly, the nano-fiber loaded with the bio-activator is obtained through centrifuging, washing and cooling-drying. The chitosan-based nano-fiber prepared through the invention is biodegradable and has the imitated extracellular matrix structure, in which the controlled release of bio-activator can be achieved. By the adding of collagen or gelatin, the cellular compatibility of nano-fiber or the control of the release speed of the bio-activator can be improved. Therefore, the invention has a broad prospect in the fields of tissue engineering, clinical wound healing and so on.
