Abstract
Alginate has been a material of choice for a spectrum of applications, ranging from metal adsorption to wound dressing. Electrospinning has added a new dimension to polymeric materials, including alginate, which can be processed to their nanosize levels in order to afford unique nanostructured materials with fascinating properties. The resulting nanostructured materials often feature high porosity, stability, permeability, and a large surface-to-volume ratio. In the present review, recent trends on electrospun alginate nanofibers from over the past 10 years toward advanced applications are discussed. The application of electrospun alginate nanofibers in various fields such as bioremediation, scaffolds for skin tissue engineering, drug delivery, and sensors are also elucidated.

Abstract
Feathers, which contain >90% keratin, are valuable natural protein resources. The aim of this study is to prepare antimicrobial feather keratin (FK)-based nanofibers by incorporating silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). A series of AgNPs-embedded feather keratin/poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(ethylene oxide) (FK/PVA/PEO) composite nanofibers with varying amounts of AgNPs content were fabricated by electrospinning. Their morphology, crystallinity, thermal stability, tensile property, and antibacterial activity were systematically investigated. The average diameters of composite nanofibers gradually decreased with increases in the amount of AgNPs. The crystallinity, thermal stability, and antibacterial activity of FK/PVA/PEO nanofibers were enhanced by embedding AgNPs. When embedded with 1.2% AgNPs, both the tensile strength and elongation-at-break reached the highest level. This work has the potential to expand the application of FK-based nanofibers in the biomaterial field.

Bioplatform Fabrication Approaches Affecting Chitosan-Based Interpolymer Complex Properties and Performance as Wound Dressings. Molecules 2020; 25:E222.

Abstract
Chitosan can form interpolymer complexes (IPCs) with anionic polymers to form biomedical platforms (BMPs) for wound dressing/healing applications. This has resulted in its application in various BMPs such as gauze, nano/microparticles, hydrogels, scaffolds, and films. Notably, wound healing has been highlighted as a noteworthy application due to the remarkable physical, chemical, and mechanical properties enabled though the interaction of these polyelectrolytes. The interaction of chitosan and anionic polymers can improve the properties and performance of BMPs. To this end, the approaches employed in fabricating wound dressings was evaluated for their effect on the property-performance factors contributing to BMP suitability in wound dressing. The use of chitosan in wound dressing applications has had much attention due to its compatible biological properties. Recent advancement includes the control of the degree of crosslinking and incorporation of bioactives in an attempt to enhance the physicochemical and physicomechanical properties of wound dressing BMPs. A critical issue with polyelectrolyte-based BMPs is that their effective translation to wound dressing platforms has yet to be realised due to the unmet challenges faced when mimicking the complex and dynamic wound environment. Novel BMPs stemming from the IPCs of chitosan are discussed in this review to offer new insight into the tailoring of physical, chemical, and mechanical properties via fabrication approaches to develop effective wound dressing candidates. These BMPs may pave the way to new therapeutic developments for improved patient outcomes.

Abstract
Novel nanomaterials have been developed for antimicrobial and wound healing applications. Here, we report the preparation of a polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) nanofiber with carboxymethyl chitosan nanoparticles (CMCS-OH30 NPs) encapsulating the antibacterial peptide OH-CATH30 (OH-30). The PVA/CS nanofibers containing OH-30 NPs (NP-30-NFs) obtained via electrospinning could achieve a secondary embedded OH-30. The effect of NP-30-NFs on the release of OH-30 was investigated through high-performance liquid chromatography. The antibacterial activities of NP-30-NFs against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were studied by bacterial plate counting. NP-30-NFs containing different concentrations of NPs were applied to mouse skin wounds to determine their effectiveness in promoting wound healing. Results showed that NP-30-NFs exhibited antibacterial properties and promoted skin wound healing.

Abstract
The discovery of novel methods to fabricate optimal scaffolds that mimic both mechanical and functional properties of the extracellular matrix (ECM) has always been the "holy grail" in tissue engineering. In recent years, electrospinning has emerged as an attractive material fabrication method and has been widely applied in tissue engineering due to its capability of producing non-woven and nanoscale fibers. However, from the perspective of biomimicry, it is difficult for single-component electrospun fiber membranes to achieve the biomimetic purposes of the multi-component extracellular matrix. Based on electrospinning, various functional components can be efficiently and expediently introduced into the membranes, and through the complementation and correlation of the properties of each component, composite materials with comprehensive and superior properties are obtained while maintaining the primitive merits of each component. In this review, we will provide an overview of the attempts made to fabricate electrospinning-based composite tissue engineering materials in the past few decades, which have been divided into organic additives, inorganic additives and organic-inorganic additives.

Abstract
Advances in nanoparticle (NP) production and demand for control over nanoscale systems have had significant impact on tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). NPs with low toxicity, contrasting agent properties, tailorable characteristics, targeted/stimuli-response delivery potential, and precise control over behavior (via external stimuli such as magnetic fields) have made it possible their use for improving engineered tissues and overcoming obstacles in TERM. Functional tissue and organ replacements require a high degree of spatial and temporal control over the biological events and also their real-time monitoring. Presentation and local delivery of bioactive (growth factors, chemokines, inhibitors, cytokines, genes etc.) and contrast agents in a controlled manner are important implements to exert control over and monitor the engineered tissues. This need resulted in utilization of NP based systems in tissue engineering scaffolds for delivery of multiple growth factors, for providing contrast for imaging and also for controlling properties of the scaffolds. Depending on the application, materials, as polymers, metals, ceramics and their different composites can be utilized for production of NPs. In this review, we will cover the use of NP systems in TERM and also provide an outlook for future potential use of such systems.

Abstract
The aim of the present work was to investigate how the molecular weight (MW) of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), a synthetic polymer able to improve alginate (ALG) electrospinnability, could affect ALG-based fiber morphology and mechanical properties. Two PEO grades, having different MWs (high, h-PEO, and low, l-PEO) were blended with ALG: the concentrations of both PEOs in each mixture were defined so that each h-PEO/l-PEO combination would show the same viscosity at high shear rate. Seven ALG/h-PEO/l-PEO mixtures were prepared and characterized in terms of viscoelasticity and conductivity and, for each mixture, a complex parameter rH/rL was calculated to better identify which of the two PEO grades prevails over the other in terms of exceeding the critical entanglement concentration. Thereafter, each mixture was electrospun by varying the process parameters; the fiber morphology and mechanical properties were evaluated. Finally, viscoelastic measurements were performed to verify the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the two PEO grades and ALG. rH/rL has been proved to be the parameter that better explains the effect of the electrospinning conditions on fiber dimension. The addition of a small amount of h-PEO to l-PEO was responsible for a significant increase in fiber mechanical resistance, without affecting the nano-scale fiber size. Moreover, the mixing of h-PEO and l-PEO improved the interaction with ALG, resulting in an increase in chain entanglement degree that is functional in the electrospinning process.

Abstract
During the past few years, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) became one of the most investigated and explored nanotechnology-derived nanostructures, given the fact that nanosilver-based materials proved to have interesting, challenging, and promising characteristics suitable for various biomedical applications. Among modern biomedical potential of AgNPs, tremendous interest is oriented toward the therapeutically enhanced personalized healthcare practice. AgNPs proved to have genuine features and impressive potential for the development of novel antimicrobial agents, drug-delivery formulations, detection and diagnosis platforms, biomaterial and medical device coatings, tissue restoration and regeneration materials, complex healthcare condition strategies, and performance-enhanced therapeutic alternatives. Given the impressive biomedical-related potential applications of AgNPs, impressive efforts were undertaken on understanding the intricate mechanisms of their biological interactions and possible toxic effects. Within this review, we focused on the latest data regarding the biomedical use of AgNP-based nanostructures, including aspects related to their potential toxicity, unique physiochemical properties, and biofunctional behaviors, discussing herein the intrinsic anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal activities of silver-based nanostructures.

Abstract
In this report, we designed and synthesized polyacrylonitrile/silver (PAN/AgNPs) nanofibers via an in-situ method to obtain a washable with high-dispersed silver nanoparticles membrane to form the hierarchically organized antibacterial mask to prevent the two-way effect of bacteria from person to environment and environment to person. For this objective, the electrospun PAN nanofibers were stabilized via the heating method. Different amounts of AgNPs were loaded into the PAN nanofibers by using silver nitrate and sodium hydroxide solutions. The basic results showed that AgNPs was homogenously loaded in PAN nanofiber matrixes. Furthermore, the release profile based on two-stage release theory showed that when the negligible amount of AgNPs was loaded into the nanofibers, the release significantly decreased, whereas antibacterial activity increased. The greatest potential antibacterial activity of the lowest amount of AgNPs showed controllable AgNPs release from PAN nanofibers that has a direct relationship with the washability and could promote the application of the produced product.

Abstract
Varisized chitosan-selenium (CS-Se) nanocomposites were synthesized through an innovative method. It is the first time to use CS both as reductant and stabilizer to synthesize selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs). By manipulating the temperature, the well-dispersed CS-Se nanocomposites were synthesized via a simple one pot reaction with the size ranging from 83 to 208nm before being characterized by TEM, DLS, UV-vis, FTIR, XRD and TG analyses. The results showed that SeO32- was reduced to a stable SeNPs colloid at a comparatively high temperature, the amino group and hydroxyl group of CS were conjugated to the surface of SeNPs. Besides, the antioxidant activities of CS-Se nanocomposites were investigated by DPPH, ABTS+, hydroxyl radical, metal ion chelating and reducing power assays, which proved to be concentration-dependent, size-dependent and exhibited good antioxidant activities. The results suggested that CS-Se nanocomposites might be considered as a more appropriate selenium-adding form to achieve antioxidative goals in food.

Abstract
Silver is considered as antibacterial agent with well-known mode of action and bacterial resistance against it is well described. The development of nanotechnology provided different methods for the modification of the chemical and physical structure of silver, which may increase its antibacterial potential. The physico-chemical properties of silver nanoparticles and their interaction with living cells differs substantially from those of silver ions. Moreover, the variety of the forms and characteristics of various silver nanoparticles are also responsible for differences in their antibacterial mode of action and probably bacterial mechanism of resistance. The paper discusses in details the aforementioned aspects of silver activity.

Abstract
The use of polymer nanocomposites as novel materials for water remediation has emerged as a promising alternative for disinfection of bacteria contaminated water. Sodium alginate, a natural biopolymer has been investigated in this study by encapsulating antimicrobial zinc oxide nanoparticles supported bentonite. The confirmation of the alginate nanocomposites was done by use of TEM, SEM-EDS and XRD. The antimicrobial activity of the alginate nanocomposites was investigated by batch studies using surface water and synthetic bacteria contaminated water containing Staphylococcus aureus. The effect of nanocomposite amount and initial bacteria concentration has been studied. The inactivation results indicated that the nanocomposite effectively inactivated bacteria in both the synthetic and surface water. With an amount of 0.5 g of the nanocomposites, no bacteria was observed in the water after 70 min of contact time with initial bacteria concentration of 200 cfu/ml for synthetic water and within a min, no bacteria was observed in the water for surface water. It is worth noting that 200 cfu/ml is the bacteria concentration range in which environmental water is likely to contain. Therefore, the results of this study have indicated that the alginate nanocomposites can be deemed as a potential antimicrobial agent for water disinfection.

Abstract
Bioactive and antibacterial coatings on stainless steel substrates were developed and characterized in this study. Silver nanocluster-silica composite coatings of 60-150 nm thickness were deposited using radio frequency (RF) co-sputtering on PEEK/bioactive glass (BG) layers (of 80-90 μm thickness) which had been electrophoretically deposited onto stainless steel. Two sputtering conditions were used by varying the deposition time (15 and 40 min); the resulting microstructure, composition, adhesion strength, in vitro bioactivity, and antibacterial activity were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX) confirmed the presence of silver nanoclusters, which were homogeneously embedded in the silica matrix. The isoelectric point of the coatings and their charge at physiological pH were determined by zeta potential measurements. The presence of BG particles in the PEEK/BG layer allows the coatings to form apatite-like crystals upon immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF). Moreover, silver nanoclusters embedded in the silica matrix as a top layer provided an antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus carnosus.
