Biochemically active hydrosol as a means of collecting electrospun microcapsules for drug delivery

Abstract

The electrospun bead-rich nanofibers are collected by biochemically active counterionic hydrosol; thus the core–shell structured microcapsules are fabricated with a positively-to-negatively charged shell. This novel one-step method of generating microcapsules can be applied to a variety of drug-delivery formulations only by filtering, diluting, or concentrating the hydrosol.
