Applications of nanotechnology in medical textiles

Biomedical applications of nanofibres generally fall into three categories selected separation, wound dressing and tissue engineering. 

Nanofibrous structures have been extensively smdied as the two- or three-dimensional scaffolds that mimic the cell living environment for tissue regeneration. Nanofibrous structures provide temporary spaces with a mnable porosity in which cells can exchange metabolites and nutrients with their environment so that cellular functionality can be maintained, the reconstruction of tissues can be aided, and the tailored mechanical properties will function as desired, and the wound bed can be protected from collapsing, and mechanical mismatch between scaffolds and host tissues can
