The use of microfluidic spinning fiber as an ophthalmology suture showing the good anastomotic strength control |
| 초록 |
Microfluidically spun microfiber biomaterials have been attracting attention recently due to their various advantages, but their mechanical strength has unfortunately not been interest part, and this lack of research has severely limited their applications. In the current work, we showed the mechanical properties of microfibers can be tuned easily, and provided a mathematical explanation for how the microfluidic spinning method intrinsically controls the mechanical properties of a microfluidically spun fiber. In addition, we made the bundle fiber with single microfiber strands for use as an ophthalmology suture. The result showed a smoother post-operative surface in a porcine eye with in our fiber did a nylon suture. The results showed the ability of using the proposed method can solve current problems in practical applications of microfiber, and can thus extend the range of applications of these microfibers. |
