以聚L-谷氨酸为载体材料, 采用无水乳液法制备了口服胰岛素微球, 微球直径在5~20 μm, 载药质量分数为5%~9%. 载药微球具有良好的pH敏感释放行为, 在胃模拟液中2 h释放量约为5%, 在肠道模拟液中2 h释放90%以上. 考察聚合物分子量、溶液浓度、理论投药量及混合材料对微球释放行为的影响.
Insulin-loaded poly(α,L-glutamic acid) microspheres for oral delivery were prepared by anhydrous emulsion system. The microspheres had diameters of 5—20 μm, and drug loading of 5%—9%. The microspheres had good pH sensitive release behavior. In gastric simulated fluid about 5% of insulin was released from microspheres after 2 h, while in intestinal simulated fluid over 90% of insulin released. The effect of polymer molecular weight, theoretical drug loading and polymer solution concentration to the microsphere release profile were investigated.
