Electrospinning of Polyvinylalcohol (PVA), Gelatin (GE), and PVA/GE blend solutions in acetic acid were investigated to fabricate biodegradable for tissue engineering. The morphology of the electrospun nanofibers was investigated with a field emission scanning electron microscope. The fibers have average diameters in the range 50-150 nm. The miscibility of PVA/GE blend fibers was examined by differential scanning calorimetry.The PVA and GE were immiscible in the as-spun nanofibrous structure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) determined the crystallinity of the membrane and tensile strength for evaluation physical properties. An in vitro study of PVA/GE blend nanofibers was conducted. To assay the cytocompatibility and cell behavior on the PVA/GE blend nanofibrous scaffolds, cell attachment and spreading of fibroblasts seeded on the scaffolds were studied. Our results indicate that thePVA/GE blend nanofibrous matrix, particularly the one that contained 20% PVA and 80% GE could be a good candidate for tissue engineering scaffolds, because it has an excellent cell attachment and spreading for fibroblast cell.
