Chitosan/nanocellulose electrospun fibers with enhanced antibacterial and antifungal activity for wound dressing applications

The combination of biodegradable fibers at nanoscale with plant-based extracts is attracting increasing attention to produce wound dressing systems. In this work, nanofibers based on chitosan (CS), poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and acacia plant-based extract were developed...
