AB  - Amino-cellulose-based nanofibers are prepared by electrospinning of blended 
      solutions of 6-deoxy-6-trisaminoethyl-amino (TEAE) cellulose and polyvinyl 
      alcohol (PVA). The TEAE cellulose with a degree of substitution of 0.67 is 
      synthesized via a nucleophilic displacement reaction starting from 
      cellulose-p-toluenesulfonic acid ester. Several solution characteristics such as 
      polymer concentration, electrical conductivity, and surface tension as well as 
      setup parameters are investigated to optimize the ability of nanofiber formation. 
      These parameters are evaluated using the rheological studies of the solutions. 
      The nanofibers obtained are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) 
      and show a high antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and 
      Klebsiella pneumoniae.
