Development of keratin-based fibers fabricated by interfacial polyelectrolyte complexation for suture applications
Interfacial Polyelectrolyte Complexation (IPC) is a convenient way to produce composite, micro-scale fibers. In this paper, we report the successful development of novel keratin-based IPC fibers and also demonstrate the feasibility of using these fibers as sutures through a proof-of-concept in vivo...
