摘要
With adjustable amphiphilicity and anionic/cationic charge,biodegradability and biocompatibility,amino acid-based poly(ester amide)s(PEAs)have drawn attention in the research of tissue engineered vascular grafts.In this work,L-phenylalanine-based PEAs with or without L-lysine were synthesized through polycondensation,and ultrafine fibrous grafts consisted of PEAs and poly(ε-caprolactone)(PCL)in given mass ratios were further prepared via blend electrospinning.Surface characterizations by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the chemical structure,and the wettability indicated that the prepared PCL/PEAs electrospun membranes exhibited less hydrophobic than PCL.Tensile results showed that the PCL/PEAs membranes possessed suitable mechanical properties,which could meet the requirements of artificial blood vessels.Cell culture and hemolytic tests exhibited that the PCL/PEAs electrospun membranes are biocompatible.In general,the electrospun grafts of PCL/PEAs could be applied for vascular repair.
