The drug release properties of poly (acrylamide-co-itaconate-vinylbenzylglycosylallylamide) hydrogels / 生物医学工程学杂志

Sugar-containing monomer vinylbenzylglycosylallyamide (VBG) was synthesized by vinylbenzyl amine and delta-gluconolactone in dimethylformamide(DMF) solution. The sugar-based hydrogel was prepared by free radical crosslinking copolymerization of VBG, itaconic acid (IA) and acrylamide (AM). The release properties of Aspirin from xerogels matrices and from hydrogel in different pH solutions and different concentration NaCl solutions were studied respectively. The release mechanism of Aspirin was further confirmed by evaluating the n value in Peppas equation. The results indicated that the drug release increased with the increase of pH values and with the decrease of NaCl concentration.
