ABSTRACT
Healing of significant segmental bone defects remains a challenge, and various studies attempt to make materials that mimic bone structures and have biocompatibility, bioactivity, biodegradability, and osteoconductivity to native bone tissues. In this work, a nanofiber scaffold membrane of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/chitosan (CS) combined with hydroxyapatite (HAp) from sand lobster (SL; Panulirus homarus) shells, as a calcium source, was successfully synthesized to mimic the nanoscale extracellular matrix (ECM) in the native bone. The HAp from SL shells was synthesized by co-precipitation method with Ca/P of 1.67 and incorporated into the nanofiber membrane PVA/PVP/CS synthesized by the electrospinning method with varying concentrations, i.e. 0, 1, 3, and 5% (w/v). Based on the morphological and physicochemical analysis, the addition of HAp into the nanofiber successfully showed incorporation into the nanofiber with small agglomeration at HAp concentrations of 1, 3, and 5% (w/v). This led to a smaller fiber diameter with higher concentration of Hap, and incorporating HAp into the nanofiber could improve the mechanical properties of the nanofiber closer to the trabecula bone. Moreover, in general, swelling due to water absorption increases due to higher hydrophilicity at higher HAp concentrations and leads to the improvement of the degradation process and protein adsorption of the nanofiber. Biomineralization in a simulated body fluid (SBF) solution confirms that the HAp in the nanofiber increases bioactivity, and it can be seen that more apatite is formed during longer immersion in the SBF solution. The nanofiber PVA/PVP/CS HAp 5% has the most potential for osteoblast (MC3T3E1) cell viability after being incubated for 24 h, and it allowed the cell to attach and proliferate. Additionally, the higher HAp concentration in the nanofiber scaffold membrane can significantly promote the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3E1 cells. Overall, the PVA/PVP/CS/HAp 5% nanofiber scaffold membrane has the most potential for bone tissue engineering.
