Hydrogels comprised of poly(methacrylic acid) grafted with poly(ethylene glycol) (P(MAA-g-EG)) were characterized and examined for their potential as oral insulin carriers. Insulin loaded polymer (ILP) samples were made using two different polymer formulations. The values for the effective molecular
