Strategies to Use Nanofiber Scaffolds as Enzyme-Based Biocatalysts in Tissue Engineering Applications

Nanofibers are considered versatile materials with remarkable potential in tissue engineering and regeneration. In addition to their extracellular matrix-mimicking properties, nanofibers can be functionalized with specific moieties (e.g., antimicrobial nanoparticles, ceramics, bioactive proteins, etc.) to improve their overall performance. A novel approach in this regard is the use of enzymes immobilized onto nanofibers to impart biocatalytic...
