MICRO/NANOENCAPSULATION OF PROTEINS WITHIN ALGINATE/CHITOSAN MATRIX BY SPRAY DRYING

MICRO/NANOENCAPSULATION OF PROTEINS WITHIN ALGINATE/CHITOSAN MATRIX BY SPRAY DRYING

Currently, therapeutic proteins and peptides are delivered subcutaneously, as they are readily denatured in the acidic, protease rich environment of the stomach or gastrointestinal track and low bioavailability results from poor intestinal absorption through the paracellular route. Encapsulation of...
