The technical steps of fabricated TPU and GL blended NFs-covered stent-graft using electrospinning. (a) Schematic image for fabrication of TPU and GL blended NFs-covered stent- graft. (b) The stent was secured on the cylindrical Teflon collector. (c) The stent with the cylindrical Teflon collector was fully coated. (d) TPU and GL blended NFs-covered stent-graft. (e) SEM images of TPU and GL blended NF scaffolds show randomly orientated NF structures at × 1,800 and × 10,000 magnification. Note. TPU: thermoplastic polyurethane, GL: gelatin, NF: nanofiber.
