Preparation and in vitro Release Mechanisms of Modified Pectin Matrix Tablets for Colon-Targeted Drug Delivery
To deliver bioactive components to the colon, an oral, colon-targeted, microparticle delivery system was developed based on pectin. Pectin was modified by mechanical activation, resulting in controllable release properties, as well as dramatic decreases in solubility. Mechanically activated pectins...
