Abstract:
Nanofibers have a particular benefit when delivering a spectrum of therapeutic drugs for diverse biomedical applications. Nanofibers are easily fabricated from cellulose acetate, chitosan, polycaprolactone, and other polymers with regulated morphology and release profiles due to nanotechnology's recent advancement. This review will provide the latest approaches to the fabrication of electrospun nanofibers containing herbal extracts, antimicrobial peptides, and antibiotics for wound-healing potential. Besides, synthesis and evaluation of nanofibrous mats, including conducting polymer and evaluate their possibility for wound healing. In addition, nanofibers are loaded with some drugs for skin cancer treatment and contain growth factors for tissue regeneration. Also, the current two-dimensional nanofibers limitations and the various techniques for convert two-dimensional to three-dimension nanofibers to avoid these drawbacks. Moreover, the future direction in improving the three-dimensional structure and functionality has been including.
