Industry Manufacturers Manuka Honey Anti-bacterial Fingertip Bandage Department of Bioengineering |University of New Hampshire, Durham, NH Krystal Burbank, Tyler Janko, Brian Piekutowski, Christine Spaulding, Tingman Zhu Bandage Shape Electrospinning of Nanofibers Project Scope Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 10kX The Manuka Honey bandage is designed to provide users a newly improved fingertip fit to ensure customer comfort. Manuka Honey is electrospun into fibers and incorporated into the bandage gauze to promote anti-bacterial properties throughout the healing process. 1kX 7.5kX User Application Capturing the Market Young’s Modulus is a measurement used to determine the tensile strength of an object or material. It is determined by the ratio of stress over strain. Using a spring scale, the “force until material breakage” was measured and compared with the associating length displacement of the material, which was measured with a caliper. The Knit Fabric bandage showed greater tensile strength, and seemed to be a more durable and suitable choice for material. AutoCAD Layout Industry Manufacturers Expedited Recovery Chefs Maintaining Sterility Commercial Fishers Minimize Risk of Infection Pictures of the nanofibers were taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).  A sample from a nanofiber mat was viewed at multiple regions and fibers were randomly selected to measure diameter.   The images above illustrate the magnification of a random region within the nanofiber sample: 1000X, 7500X, to 10,000X. Why Manuka Honey? Electrospinning and Crosslinking Manuka Honey is specifically unique for containing hydrogen peroxide and methylglyoxal, both of which kill bacteria High viscosity acts as a protective barrier to prevent wound infections High sugar content correlates to high osmolarity and stunts the growth of microbes Stimulates macrophages that secrete TNF to expedite wound healing process Nanofibers were created using the  electrospinning process; electrospinning requires a solution viscous enough to maintain a fibrous structure, yet fluid enough to flow through a syringe.  Polyvinyl alcohol, a biocompatible polymer, was added to Manuka honey to create a solution that maximized the concentration of honey while maintaining the requirements needed for electrospinning.   Successful solution: 20 wt% Manuka honey and 8 wt% polyvinyl alcohol using the following parameters: 27 gauge needle, 18kV, 0.04mL/h, and 5 inches from plate. Honey/ PVA PVA 10kX Safety Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2) Certification Non-pathogenic bacteria: Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus Polyvinyl alcohol(PVA), glutaraldehyde, and acetic acid Electrospinning needle sharps Solutions formulated in Biological Safety Cabinet with PPE Polyvinyl alcohol is a water soluble polymer, therefore crosslinking of the polymer is necessary to avoid dissolution.  Chemical crosslinking of the fiber was done using glutaraldehyde in a desiccator; once with a vacuum, once without. In both trials, the nanofibers dissolved after attempted crosslinking. This is possibly due to too much water in the glutaraldehyde solution or the fact that an acid catalyst was not used.   1kX Average diameter: 0.62µm Average diameter: 1.02µm Escherichia coli Staphylococcus aureus Antimicrobial Testing: Kirby Bauer Conclusion Solution Index A : Autoclaved Water B : Neosporin C: Manuka Honey Optimal Electrospinning fibers designed using syringe solution of 20 wt% Manuka Honey, 8 wt% polyvinyl alcohol 27 gauge needle allowed solution to spin to effective nanofibers using a consistent voltage of 18kV Manuka Honey is effective against killing Escherichia coli strands per Kirby Bauer Zone of Inhibition test Electrospinning Technology A method of fiber production that uses high voltage to draw a charged thread of polymer onto a collection plate. Adjustable Parameters: Voltage Flow rate of solution Solution in syringe Distance from collector plate Size of syringe Future Work Research and experiment alternative crosslinking techniques to prevent dissolving of fibers Test anti-microbial properties using additional various strands of bacteria found in wounds IRB review to tests on human subjects The antibacterial ability of the Manuka honey bandage tested against Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli with a Kirby Bauer test using autoclaved deionized water as the negative control and antimicrobial ointment, Neosporin, as the positive control. Zone of Inhibition was measured with a caliper, diameters of zone were compared Anti-microbial property of Manuka Honey is superior to the positive control, Neosporin.
