Abstract

An insulin delivery system comprising phenylboronic acid (PBA) hydrogel was investigated for efficacy at physiological pH by an addition of amino moiety. Release of gluconated insulin from hydrogel beads having PBA group responded to glucose concentration was strongly affected by the incorporation of amine group in the beads under physiological pH. Released G-Ins indicates 17600 mIU/cm3·day, that value is practical for in vivo application. These results indicate the feasibility of insulin delivery system consisting of PBA and amino groups at physiological conditions.
