• Encapsulation of bioactive compounds through electrospinning/electrospraying and spray drying: A comparative assessment of food-related applications (2017, methodology): “For instance, chitosan-based nanofibers have been successfully electrospun from chitosan solutions blended with PEO,([153]) PVA,([109,149]) and silk fibroin.([154]) Similarly, sodium alginate fibers have been fabricated by electrospinning of aqueous mixtures in the presence of PVA and PEO.”
• Preparations, properties and applications of chitosan based nanofibers fabricated by electrospinning (2011, unknown): “Similarly, SF/chitosan nanofibers can be made by electrospinning of SF/chitosan blends containing up to the chitosan content of 30% in formic acid [67].”
• Development of Active Antimicrobial Fiber‐Based Chitosan Polysaccharide Nanostructures using Electrospinning (2008, unknown): “Since electrospinning of pure chitosan has proven to be difficult, many other studies reported its fiber generation using mixtures with other polymers, such as poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) [13–15], poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) [16, 17], silk fibroin (SF) [18, 19], poly(lactide acid) (PLA) [20] and collag”
• Composite materials based on silk proteins (2010, background): “However, in fibers with higher chitosan content there was evidence of phase separation with chitosan-rich beads on the surface of the fibers [145].”
