Liposomes are widely investigated for their use as drug delivery systems, where they have to meet strict stability criteria. Hence, it is of common interest to establish appropriate storage conditions to improve the shelf life of liposomes. In general, long-term stability can be achieved by freezing
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of three zinc salts (i.e., zinc oxide, zinc carbonate, and zinc acetate) on insulin encapsulation efficiency (EE), stability, and in vitro release kinetics from poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres. Microspheres were prepared by wa
