Different shapes and morphologies were expected by changing the levels of parameters during the fabrication process such as molecular weight of polymer we used, concentration and flow rate of polymer solution. Currently, fibers, spheres, as well ribbons are successfully prepared using this simple, scalable and robust method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Research Focus: II.Fabrication of Smart Core-Shell Systems for Treating Iron Deficiency<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iron deficiency is one of the major nutritional deficiencies around the world. Different kinds of iron supplements have been added to food and drinks to increase the iron adsorption in human body. However, redox precipitation of iron in human body would reduce the bioavailability of iron significantly. To solve this problem, smart core-shell systems would be developed to prevent iron from oxidation reaction in human body without affecting its dissolving property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"261\" src=\"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/01\/tian1-600x261.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/01\/tian1-600x261.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/01\/tian1.jpg 649w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><em>Figure 1:<\/em> Poly(Lactic acid) fibers (Left),spheres (Middle), as well as ribbons(Right).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PhD, Chemical Engineering, 2014North Carolina State University M.S., Chemical Engineering, 2011North Carolina State University B.S., Polymer Science and Engineering, 2009Jilin University, Jilin Province, China Research&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":145,"featured_media":0,"parent":36,"menu_order":17,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-left.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"first_name":[],"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-610","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/610","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/145"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=610"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/610\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1640,"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/610\/revisions\/1640"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbe.ncsu.edu\/velevgroup\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=610"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
