Abstract

Fibrous mats via electrospinning have been widely applied in tissue engineering. In this work, nanofibers were prepared via electrospinning from polymer with different content of carboxyl groups. A natural material, collagen, was then immobilized onto the nanofiber surface by N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)/N-Hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) activation process. It was found that the immobilization degree of collagen could be facilely modulated. The obtained collagen-modified nanofibers were used for neural stem cells culture, and unmodified nanofibers were used as a control. Results indicated that the modification of collagen could enhance the attachment and viability of the cultured neural stem cells.
