Electrospinning of collagen: enzymatic and spectroscopic analyses reveal solvent-independent disruption of the triple-helical structure

 

Electrospinning has become a well-established method for creating nanofibrous meshes for tissue-engineering applications. The incorporation of natural extracellular components, such as electrospun pure collagen nanofibers, has proven to be particularly challenging, as electrospun collagen nanofibers do not constitute native collagen fibers anymore. In this study, we show that this detrimental effect is not only limited to fluorinated solvents, as previously thought. Rat tail collagen was dissolved in a
