Abstract

ABSTRACTOur team conducted theoretical calculations and experimental studies of interpolymer interactions in insulin-chitosan complexes based on the spatial orientation of chitosan and insulin macromolecules using Langmuir film balance at various pH values. The most optimal conditions for interpolymer interactions between insulin and chitosan chains occur at pH value of 5.4, which corresponds to the isoelectric point of insulin. For the similar pH values of 4.2 and 6.0, the free energy of coordination between chitosan and insulin was estimated by molecular dynamic simulations as of 1.1 and 5.8 kcal mol−1, respectively.
