Glucose‐Triggered Insulin Release from Fe3+‐Cross‐linked Alginate Hydrogel: Experimental Study and Theoretical Modeling

Abstract: We study the mechanisms involved in the release, triggered by the application of glucose, of insulin entrapped in Fe -cross-linked alginate hydrogel particles further stabilized with a polyelectrolyte. Platelet-shaped alginate particles are synthesized containing enzyme glucose oxidase conjugated with silica nanoparticles, which are also entrapped in the hydrogel. Glucose diffuses in from solution, and production of hydrogen peroxide is catalyzed by the enzyme within the hydrogel. We argue that, specifically f… Show more

“…where 𝒟F,0=1.5×10-6cm2s-1 is the diffusion coefficient of F‐DNA in water, taken as a typical value; 𝒟F=0.97×10-11cm2s-1 is the diffusion coefficient of the same molecules inside fully cross‐linked alginate; W0 is the crosslinking density of the intact alginate. The diffusion coefficient of F‐DNA in the intact cross‐linked gel was also taken from the same as in the earlier work . With these assumptions, the calculated F‐DNA leakage curve, Figure (a), is a in good agreement with the experimental data.…”

“…Here, we use the same expression and the same parameter values as in an earlier study of a different alginate system. The crosslinking density is inversely proportional to the void sizes in alginate .…”
