The Fabrication of Sago (Metroxylon sagu) Starch/ Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/ Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) Nanofibers for Drug Delivery Application
This study reported the fabrication of starch-based nanofibers derived from various weight ratios (w:w) of native sago starch (SS), poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) using the electrospinning technique. The effects of electrospinning operation parameters on the surface mor...
