Abstract:

Textile tendon patches made of pure micro yarn structure has low biological activity, high immunogenicity and is non-biodegradable. Several nano-structured tendon patches with great bioabsorbability were fabricated by weaving with optimized patch material and structure. The weft yarn was constructed with the several different types of silk fibroin (SF)/poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofiber yarns, the warp yarn was all composed of traditional PLLA microfiber yarns, and the two sets of yarns were interweaved into patches through the weaving process. The effects of the SF and PLLA mass ratio of nanofiber yarns on the morphology, physicochemical and biological properties of such patches were systematically investigated. The results showed that the crystal diffraction appeared at about 16.4°, and crystallinity and mechanical properties of the patches decreased gradually with the increase of SF content. The breaking loads of all tendon patches were found to be higher than 100 N, meeting the requirement of practical application. The biological tests showed that cell adhesion and proliferation ability of the patches gradually improved with the increase of SF content.

Key words: medical textiles, tendon patch, nanofiber yarn, silk fibroin, poly(l-lactic acid)
