ABSTRACT
Collagen plays a pivotal role in human physiological functions and extracted collagen has multiple potential applications. Tilapia skin can be applied to extract collagen for maximizing the profit of tilapia processing. Electrospinning/electrospraying is novel micro- and nano-techniques to fabricate microfibers and microspheres in a simple and easy way. In this work, we extract collagens from tilapia skin by three types of extraction methods:
acetic acid method, hot water method, and sodium hydroxide method. Then, these extracted collagens are characterized by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. These extracted collagens have different molecular weights and different protein secondary structures. Finally, these extracted collagens are applied to fabricate electrosprayed microspheres, electrospun microfibers, and mixed microspheres/microfibers with multiple potential applications by adjusting the collagen concentrations. Higher polymer molecular weight only needs lower concentration to produce microfibers. The microfiber diameter increases with the increase of collagen concentration. This work proves that extraction methods have obvious effect on the preparation of electrospun/electrosprayed microstructures of tilapia skin collagen and provide a way to maximize resource utilization of tilapia processing waste.Palabras clave
