We present an effective emulsion eletrospinning method in obtaining collagen-like protein (denoted as Fol-8Col) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanofibrous composite scaffolds. The reservation of Fol-8Col's chemical structure has been confirmed by FT-IR spectra on electrospun composite fibers. Importantly, compared to fibrous mat without Fol-8Col, the osteoblastic behavior on the nanofibrous composite scaffolds was enhanced. The novelty of the process was that Fol-8Col in the scaffold had a positive modulation on early osteoblast adhesion and extension (within 24 hours) compared to neat PLGA. We concluded that this effective emulsion electrospinning is able to fabricate novel Fol-8Col/PLGA nanofibrous composite scaffolds which is promising for bone tissue engineering application.
