Kinetics of release of vaginal lactobacilli from PEO nanofibers determined by measuring fluorescence (a), and the influence of electrospinning on the viability of fluorescent lactobacilli (b). Percentage of the released bacteria was determined based on the highest overall fluorescent signal. Viability in dispersion was normalized to dry mass to enable comparison with viability in nanofibers. Lpl, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (red); Lga, Lactobacillus gasseri (brown); Lje, Lactobacillus jensenii (blue); Lcr, Lactobacillus crispatus (green); D, dispersion; N, nanofibers. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001 (Student’s t test) relative to bacterial dispersion
