The assessment of electrospun scaffolds fabricated from polycaprolactone with the addition of L-arginine
- Polycaprolactone (PCL) was electrospun with the addition of arginine (Arg), an α-amino acid that accelerates the haeling process. The efficient needleless electrospinning technique was used for the fabrication of the nanofibrous layers. The materials produced consisted mainly of fibers with diameters of between 200 and 400 nm. Moreover, both microfibers and beads were present within the layers. Higher bead sized were observed with the increased addition of arginine.
