The use of magnetic electrospinning to produce anisotropic constructs with mechanism and alternative setups. A) Magnetic field-assisted electrospinning uses a conventional electrospinning setup with the addition of two parallel-positioned permanent magnets. An applied magnetic field results in highly aligned fiber deposition between the two magnets. Tortuosity may be introduced into aligned fibers by modulating the electrospinning flow rate.
