description | Engineered electrospun membranes have emerged as promising materials in guided tissue regeneration, as they provide an appropriate framework for the formation of new functional periodontal tissues. The development of multifunctional local drug delivery systems with sustained release of drugs for prolonged infection control can be used in periodontal surgical interventions to simultaneously prohibit epithelium downgrowth and ensure proper healing and regeneration of damaged periodontal tissues. The aim of the present study was the fabrication of novel composite membranes from PLGA/moxifloxacin-loaded mesoporous nanocarriers through electrospinning and the evaluation of their drug release profiles. The addition of moxifloxacin-loaded mesoporous nanocarriers in PLGA yielded a sustained and prolonged drug release, while maintaining satisfactory mechanical strength. The freshly fabricated membranes were found to be biocompatible at masses less than 1 mg after exposure to healthy erythrocytes. Increase in the amount of polymer led to more uniform fibers with large diameters and pores. The study of the parameters of the electrospinning process indicated that increase in the applied voltage value and rotation speed of the collector led to more uniform fibers with higher diameter and larger pores, suitable for tissue regeneration applications, such as periodontal tissue regeneration. |
