Abstract

Preparation of highly porous biocompatible and bioresorbable nerve conduit or scaffold by electrospinning based on synthetic polycaprolactone with a molecular weight of 80kDa (PCL 80kDa) has significance in the context of regenerative medicine with special emphasis on their application in neurotrauma. PCL conduits/scaffolds serving as a support structure for seeded stem cells show promising regenerative potential to promote functional recovery and tissue regeneration in models of neurotrauma. Here we describe a standard protocol for the production of conduits by electrospinning at high field-forming voltages (24kB) using a 6% solution of PCL 80kDa in a chloroform/methanol mixture.
