Abstract

Nanofibers have a large area of surface variable 3D topography, porosity, and adaptable surface functions. Several researchers are researching nanofiber technology as a potential solution to the current problems in several fields. It manages cardiovascular disorders, infectious diseases, gastrointestinal tract-associated diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, pain treatment, contraception, and wound healing. The nanofibers are fabricated using various fabrication techniques, such as electrospinning, phase separation, physical Fabrication, and chemical fabrication. Depending on their intended use, nanofibers are manufactured using a variety of polymers. It comprises natural polymers, semi-synthetic polymers,…
