NANOFIBER- AND NANOWHISKER-BASED TRANSFECTION PLATFORMS

摘要

Described herein are electrospun core-shell fibers that include (i) a central core that is electrically conductive having an exterior surface, wherein the core comprises a first polymer and an electroconductive material; (ii) a shell adjacent to the exterior surface of the core, the shell comprising a second polymer; and (iii) one or more bioactive agents in the shell. In one aspect, the fibers are electrospun fibers. Additionally, described herein are methods for making and using the core-shell fibers.
