• Abstract:

  Background: There has been increasing interest in the use of zein as a pharmaceutical excipient due to its safe and biodegradable nature and it may be also prepared in the form of electrospun nanofibers. Aim: The aim of the study is to investigate the factors governing the production of high-quality electrospun zein nanofibres. Methods: Zein in
