Abstract:The success of colon-targeted oral drug delivery relies in the proper control on the release of the entrapped nanostructures at the colon. This work describes the design of hybrid systems for their enzyme-triggered release at the colon. The hybrid systems were constituted by nanoemulsions with adequate characteristics for the treatment of ulcerative colitis included in a pectin hydrogel-like matrix. For that purpose, pectins with similar degrees of methylation (< 50 %) and increasing degree of amidation, i.… Show more
