A new route to produce starch-based fiber mesh scaffolds by wet spinning and subsequent surface modification as a way to improve cell attachment and proliferation

This study proposes a new route for producing fiber mesh scaffolds from a starch-polycaprolactone (SPCL) blend. It was demonstrated that the scaffolds with 77% porosity could be obtained by a simple wet-spinning technique based on solution/precipitation of a polymeric blend. To enhance the cell atta...
