Preparation of Chitosan-Polyethylene Oxide-Colocasia esculenta Flour Nanofibers using Electrospinning Method
Nanofibers have been prepared from the mixture of chitosan, polyethylene oxide (PEO) and Colocasia esculenta flour (CE flour) by using the electrospinning method. Two different nanofibers were formulated, containing chitosan-PEO and chitosan-PEO-CE flour. The higher concentration of PEO (3%chitosan-...
