Engineering multifunctional bactericidal nanofibers for abdominal hernia repair

Engineering multifunctional bactericidal nanofibers for abdominal hernia repair

Afewerki et al. employ integrated electrospinning, plasma treatment and direct surface modification strategy to engineer multifunctional bactericidal nanofibers for use in hernia repair. In a mouse model, they demonstrate that these nanofibers display good biological performance with low inflammator...
