dc.description.abstract | The concern with rapid healing of chronic wounds, such as those observed in skin
lesions caused by parasites of the leishmania genus, has become the reason why
several study groups have developed high-performance dressings. This new approach
to textile nanotechnology seeks to develop dressings that promote the controlled
release of drugs directly at the wound site more quickly and effectively. This study
aimed to develop nanofiber blends using the technique of spinning by blowing in
solution (Solution Blow Spinning - SBS), from the combination of biopolymers
polycaprolactone (PCL) and chitosan, with drug incorporation based on N-methyl-Dglucamine, of choice for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. Initially, a solution
was prepared containing a concentration of 25% (m/v) and 75% (m/v) of chitosan and
PCL, respectively, diluted in 99.8% glacial acetic acid. In a second solution, under the
same conditions, a drug (NMDG) at a concentration of 6.7% (w/v) was included. Both
solutions were homogenized under stirring with a magnetic bar for 24 hours, at room
temperature, and the solutions were transferred to a syringe coupled to an ejection
pump to obtain the nanofiber. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared
spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to characterize the nanofibers. The release of NMDG
from this new system was analyzed using visible light spectroscopy (UV-VIS). The
production process developed in this research allowed to obtain scaffolding blends by
combining PCL and chitosan biopolymers, without and with (NMDG), using the
technique of spinning by blowing in solution (SBS). From the SEM analysis, it was
possible to observe significant differences in the mean of nanofibers in the blend
scaffolds, which presented values of 320.9 ± 93.5 nm without the drug and 365.8 ±
113.2 nm for the nanofiber with the drug (p<0.001). The FTIR characterization
indicates in the fibers the presence of functional groups characteristic of each material
used and produced, allowing the detection of drug incorporation with an increase of
6.2% in nanofiber transmittance. Mixing two polymers has proven to be an effective
technique to obtain a new material with desirable properties, which may be relevant to
optimize drug incorporation and drug delivery and targeting properties. The study also
proved the effectiveness of the SBS technique for obtaining nanofibers with chitosan.
Although in vitro and in vivo biological activity studies are needed to prove the
biological application of nanofibers, our data point to the promising use of
PCL/Chitosan nanofibers incorporated with NMDG for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. | |
