Miniaturization of an enclosed electrospinning process to enhance reproducibility in the fabrication of rapidly dissolving cell‐based biosensors

There is broad interest in producing electrospun films embedded with biological materials. It is well known that electrospinning requires careful control of the process conditions, especially the environmental conditions such as relative humidity (RH). Given that commercial electrospinning systems are expensive (> $10,000) and are typically too large to be used in standard biological safety cabinets (BSC), we designed and built a miniaturized …
