Transcript
The overall goal of this procedure is to fabricate and surface-modify polylactic acid, co-glycolic acid, electrospun fibers, with varying amounts of the antiviral protein Griffithsin. This method can help answer key questions in the drug delivery

This manuscript describes the procedure to fabricate and characterize Griffithsin-modified poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) electrospun fibers that demonstrate potent adhesive and antiviral activity against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection in vitro. Methods used to synthesize, surface-modify, and characterize the resulting morphology, conjugation, and desorption of Griffithsin from surface-modified fibers are described.
