The modification of insulin for therapeutic purposes

First this thesis outlines the historical background and current status of diabetes therapeutics. This includes prolonged action preparations, oral hypoglycaemic agents, approaches to peroral insulin therapy and methods of insulin modification, with emphasis on derivatives of clinical interest. Then...
