Recently, significant progress has been made in the fabrication of SERS-active substrates using simple, inexpensive, and affordable methods. The full potential of universal SERS diagnostics will likely be realized with the development of approaches and devices capable of effectively detecting analytes on various surfaces as well as in multicomponent media. In addition, the combination of implantable or wearable SERS-active substrates and remote portable devices enables real-time diagnostics that ideally fit the concept of personalized medicine. In this paper, we summarize recent achievements in fabricating flexible SERS substrates made of cellulose paper, polymer membranes, and textile fibrous films. Emphasis is placed on the in-situ extraction and detection of various chemicals in real-world surfaces and complex media using flexible nanofibrous SERS platforms. The potential SERS applications and future perspectives in on-site diagnostics are also discussed.展开更多

Throughout the experiments, the membrane showed an appropriate degradation rate, and the pH values of degradation media were maintained at around 7.4. Simultaneously, the excellent biocompatibility of the membrane in vitro and in vivo was confirmed by live/dead and histopathological analyses. Meanwhile, the membrane can reduce tendon adhesion significantly and promote functional recovery effectively. The encouraging results were further demonstrated by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and Masson's trichrome stainings, and type I collagen immunohistochemical analysis. It was concluded that the model treated with the electrospun PLGA membrane was significantly better with respect to the adhesion prevention and tissue repair than that without treatment. Considering the results of degradation and adhesion prevention efficacy, the electrospun PLGA membrane would be a great candidate for the prevention of postoperative tendon adhesion.展开更多
In order to encapsulate and controlled-release bioactive proteins,three fibrous membranes,i.e.,poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA),hybrid PLGA and chitosan(H-PLGA/CS),and core/shell PLGA/CS (C-PLGA/CS),were pro...In order to encapsulate and controlled-release bioactive proteins,three fibrous membranes,i.e.,poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA),hybrid PLGA and chitosan(H-PLGA/CS),and core/shell PLGA/CS (C-PLGA/CS),were produced by emulsion electrospinning,co-electrospinning and coaxial electrospinning,respectively.Bovine serum albumin(BSA) was selected as a model protein.The loading efficiency of BSA in the PLGA membrane was 1.56%,lower than those of H-PLGA/CS(5.98%) and C-PLGA/CS(4.80%).BSA release profiles from the three membranes showed initial burst releases in the first 7 d and then sustained release for 28 d.Cumulative releases at the end of the releasing period,28 d,from the above three membranes were nearly 63%,88% and 94%,respectively,indicating that the introduction of chitosan and the core/shell fiber structure could enhance BSA release rate.In addition,all these electrospun membranes could retain their fibrous morphologies after in vitro release of BSA for 28 d.展开更多
