Release of Insulin from Calcium Carbonate Microspheres with and without Layer-by-Layer Thin Coatings

Release of Insulin from Calcium Carbonate Microspheres with and without Layer-by-Layer Thin Coatings

The release of insulin from insulin-containing CaCO3 microspheres was investigated. The microspheres were prepared by mixing aqueous solutions of CaCl2 and Na2CO3 in the presence of insulin. The surface of the insulin-containing CaCO3 microspheres was coated with a layer-by-layer thin film consisti...
