  Abstract

Polycaprolactone (PCL) based nanocomposite scaffolds containing graphene (Gr) and baghdadite (BAG) nanoparticles were fabricated using the electrospinning method. Mechanical properties of the scaffolds were evaluated. Viability and adhesion of cells on the scaffolds were confirmed using fluorescence optical microscopy, MTT and FE-SEM analysis methods. The results indicated that incorporation of various concentrations of BAG from 1 to 3 wt% notably improved the mechanical properties. Cell adhesion assay revealed that the addition of BAG nanoparticles to PCL-Gr scaffold caused further adhesion, viability, and proliferation of the cells.
