Synthesis and characterization of poly(gamma-glutamic acid) hydrogels and their application in slow-release of porcine somatotropin
Newly developed hydrogels, produced by cross linking purified poly ($\gamma$-glutamic acid) ($\gamma$PGA) with dihaloalkane compounds were utilized for slow-release of porcine somatotropin (pST). The polymer was produced by fermentation of Bacillus licheniformis. It was found that the rate of the cr...
