Current developments in tissue engineering methods and conventional implants continue to face challenges in tackling the complex avascular characteristics of articular cartilage, hindering effective repair and tissue regeneration. To overcome these challenges, this study primarily aims to achieve a synergistic solution by processing Asphaltum Punjabianum (Shilajit) incorporated polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) nanofibrous mats through electrospinning. The processed electrospun fibers were comprehensively analyzed through scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), antimicrobial assay, degradation studies, surface roughness measurements, rheological studies, and assessment of cell viability.

Article Synopsis
  • Additive manufacturing can create regenerative scaffolds for wound healing using a 3D printing technique that ensures precise porosity and mechanical strength.
  • The scaffolds were made from a specially formulated ink combining materials like carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, collagen, and oregano extract, and they demonstrated strong tensile strength and suitable degradation rates.
  • The scaffolds showed biocompatibility with various cells and indicated potential for enhancing wound healing due to their ability to release growth factors and inhibit bacterial growth.
