Novel nanofibers from blends of polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) and chitosan have been produced through an emulsion electrospinning process. The spinning solution employed polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the emulsifier. PVA was extracted from the electrospun nanofibers, resulting in a final scaffold consisting of a blen…

Water-soluble fluorescent carbon nanodots (CNDs) were fabricated directly from polyethylene glycol (PEG) by a simple one-pot thermal treatment. In the formation of such CNDs, PEG played two essential roles: the carbon source and surface passivating agent. CNDs were used directly without any additional separation or pu…
