Pyridine catalyzed acylation of electrospun chitosan membranes by C6-C12 acyl chlorides: Effect of reaction time and chain length

Pyridine catalyzed acylation of electrospun chitosan membranes by C6-C12 acyl chlorides: Effect of reaction time and chain length

Chitosan nanofiber membranes manufactured via electrospinning are attractive for drug delivery applications due to their increased surface area. The as-spun fibers contain trifluoroacetate (TFA)-salts that cause swelling and loss of nanofiber structure in physiological solutions and are cytotoxic. H...
