Abstract

Cardiovascular disease has gradually become a kind of lifestyle disease in modern society, and the construction of an engineered cardiac patch (ECP) through tissue engineering means is a promising treatment for myocardial infarction in clinical practice. In this study, polyamide fabric was used as scaffold material. Hydrochloric acid, aniline (AN), and ammonium persulfate (APS) were used as main modification reagents. The knitted ECP was constructed by straight in situ polymerization. Respectively, by using a single variable method to change the concentration of APS and base fabric knit method, through a series of tests analyzing the effect of APS concentration and knitting methods on ECP properties, the optimal preparation of ECP was summarized: under the experimental conditions of hydrochloric acid, AN, and APS solution concentrations of 0.7 mol L−1, the ECP showed the best performance for potential cardiac therapy application: the conductivity can reach 2.63–2.79 S m−1, porosity is 60–62%, average pore size is in the range of 16.4–21.65 μm, and elongation is up to 181.43%, showing superior properties of textiles cardiac patch.
