ABSTRACT
This study aimed to detect the biocompatibility of bioactivated polycaprolactone/silk fibroin-based nanofibers in vivo using zebrafish embryos. Anti-Bisphenol A (BPA) antibody or lactase enzyme was immobilized on electrospun nanofibers, for making the nanofiber bioactive. Lactase immobilized nanofiber was developed to hydrolyze lactose and produce milk with reduced lactose. Anti-BPA antibody immobilized nanofiber was developed to remove bisphenol A from liquids. To test the biocompatibility of the bioactive nanofibers, the zebrafish embryos were divided into 4 groups; control, raw nanofiber, lactase immobilized nanofiber, and anti-BPAantibody immobilized nanofiber groups. In nanofiber-based exposure groups; nanofibers were incubated separately in the embryonic development medium. Subsequently, the embryos were kept in these development mediums for 72 h post-fertilization (72 hpf) and their developmental analyzes were performed. At the end of 72 hpf, zebrafish embryos were homogenized. Lipid peroxidation and nitrite oxide levels, and superoxide dismutase and glutathione-S-transferase activities were determined to monitor the disturbance of oxidant-antioxidant balance in zebrafish embryos. Exposure to bioactive nanofibers slightly disrupted the oxidant-antioxidant balance, but this change did not affect the mortality and hatching times of the embryos. In conclusion, zebrafish embryos have been effectively used in biocompatibility testing for bioactive nanofibers suggesting that these materials are biocompatible.
