We use electrospinning technique to obtain nanofibers mainly as scaffolds for tissue engineering. The principle of the electrospinning is the effect of high voltage on a polymer solution. The main use of electrospinning technology is for nanofiber production.

Electrospun nanofiber scaffolds have been shown to accelerate the maturation, improve the growth, and direct the migration of cells in vitro. This technique is applicable to virtually every soluble or fusible polymer and is capable of spinning fibers in a variety of shapes and sizes with a wide range of properties to be used in a broad . Electrostatic spinning, or electrospinning , works by polymer solutions. As first step of the process, the polymer solution is placed into a pipette or a syringe, and then it is pushed to the tip of the pipette, or to a metallic needle ( spinneret) by external pumping.

Pumping is usually applied by mechanical pistons . The technology is based upon the discovery, that it is possible to create Taylor Cones and the subsequent flow of material not only from the tip of a capillary, but also from .

With the Spraybase instrument, the fibers are collected in the . Electrospinning in Tissue Engineering InTechOpen, Published on: 2016-12-21.
