English

Subject field(s)
  • Biotechnology
  • Molecular Biology
CONT

Mimicking the tissue's natural topography also helps to guide the cells, and another technology borrowed from the engineering world, electrospinning, can produce scaffolds that resemble the texture of natural tissue matrix.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Biotechnologie
  • Biologie moléculaire
CONT

On peut imiter la topographie naturelle des tissus pour guider les cellules, mais on peut aussi utiliser une autre technique, le filage électrostatique; ce procédé produit des supports qui ressemblent à la texture de la matrice tissulaire naturelle.

Record 2 2005-05-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Thread Spinning (Textiles)
DEF

[A] process that produces a highly impermeable, nonwoven fabric of submicron fibres by pushing a millimeter diameter liquid jet through a nozzle with an electric field.

OBS

The thickness of the electrospun fibres differs depending on the fluid properties, such as viscosity, conductivity, dielectric constant, surface tension, etc. and the molecular weight and process operating parameters of the polymer, such as flow rate of the solution, jet current, applied electrical potential and tip to ground distance.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Filature (Textiles)
DEF

[Procédé] qui donne une étoffe non tissée ultra-imperméable de fibres submicroniques et qui consiste à pousser un jet liquide d'un millimètre de diamètre dans un injecteur au moyen d'un champ électrique.

OBS

L'épaisseur des fibres électrofilées varie selon les propriétés du fluide : sa viscosité, sa conductivité, sa constante diélectrique, sa tension superficielle, etc., de même que le poids moléculaire et les paramètres du polymère influençant le procédé, tels le débit, le courant d'injection, la tension électrique appliquée et la distance entre l'extrémité de l'injecteur et la mise à la terre.
