investigating the hydrophilic properties of polycaprolactone containing capparis spinosa extract for use in tissue engineering applications

In this research, polycaprolactone (pcl) nanofibrous textiles were produced with caparis spinosa leaf extract to be used in the tissue engineering applications. infrared spectroscopy (ftir) analysis was used to characterize the functional groups of the extract. scanning electron microscopic images (sem) were used to investigate the morphology of nanofibers. checking the hydrophilicity by the contact angle test showed that the water drop angle decreased with the addition of the extract.
