中文摘要：

介绍了玉米醇溶蛋白（Zein）的组成及结构,总结了Zein膜的制备方法、性能及用途,详述了为满足Zein膜在各种用途中的性能而进行的各种修饰改性,如提高机械性能、增强亲/疏水性、增强隔氧阻水性、增大载药量和载药效率及增强药物控缓释等.今后的工作,将围绕新的制备和复合改性方法、拓展Zein膜的应用领域、复合改性机理的研究及改善Zein膜用于药物控缓释时初期的爆发性释放等方面展开.

英文摘要：

In this review,the structure and composition of zein films were introduced briefly.Then,preparation methods,properties and applications of zein films were reviewed.And recent developments in modifications for zein films to satisfy performance requirements in application,such as strengthening the mechanical properties,enhancing the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties,improving the oxygen/water vapor barrier,increasing the drug-loaded mass and efficiency,heightening the drug-loaded control and release,were introduced and discussed in detail respectively.In summary,the future orientations of zein films focus on new methods for preparation and modification,further investigation of the modification mechanism,new application fields and elimination of the initial burst release for the drug-loaded control and release.
