Abstract

Chitosan/gelatin blend nanofibers were electrospun and the focus of this study was on the chitosan and gelatin concretions and on morphology of resulting nanofibers. The morphology of electrospun chitosan/gelatin blend nanofibers were characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The miscibility of blend was determined using a SEM and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer/attenuated total reflectance (FTIR/ATR). Antibacterial property and stability of samples was also investigated. Water contact angle measurement (WCA) was employed to investigate the wettability of nanofibers.
