| Abstract | ||
| The electrospinning technique is widely recognized as a practical and effective method for creating functional nanofibrous biomaterials. Electrospun fibers have been made from a lot of different materials, including hybrid mixtures and natural and manmade polymers. The use of ecologically acceptable biomaterials found in natural polymers is becoming increasingly important due to ongoing environmental concerns. Natural polysaccharides are the preferred choice due to their excellent cell affinity, low immunogenicity, practicality, moldability, flexibility, lightweight nature, durability, chemical and physicochemical stability, biodegradability, bioadhesion, natural availability, and cost-effectiveness. In this review, we explore recent contributions in the electrospinning of natural polymers, with a particular focus on polysaccharides. We discuss the challenges and limitations associated with the electrospinning process, evaluate the electrospinnability of these materials, and highlight their promising biomedical applications. Additionally, we examine the potential of electrospun natural polymer-based materials in various therapeutic and regenerative fields, emphasizing their unique properties and performance in medical applications. | ||
