  Abstract

Bioactive Polycaprolactone/Collagen nanofibers containing gehlenite Nano-powder were fabricated using electrospinning for bone tissue engineering. The physicochemical properties of scaffolds measured using scanning electron microscopy, tensile test, FTIR spectroscopy, and water contact angle measurement test. A slight enhancement (~20 nm) in fibers diameter was observed by adding gehlenite nanoparticles to the scaffolds, but the fiber diameter distributions for both scaffolds were within the normal range of extracellular matrix (50-500 nm). In vitro experiments demonstrated well attachment and higher proliferation of MG-63 cells on gehlenite nanoparticles containing scaffolds. Besides, the stimulatory cell differentiation effects of Polycaprolactone/Collagen/gehlenite scaffolds were demonstrated by Alizarin red staining. This study represents for advanced of the natural and synthetic polymers for bone tissue engineering.
