Abstract

Certain variations in the process parameters (emulsification time, surfactant concentration) were performed in order to prepare BSA-loaded gelatin microspheres with high loading efficacy and particle size ranging from 1 to 10 μm using a procedure originally employed by Tabata and Ikada. The mathematical modelling of drug release in the presence of collagenase showed a biphasic release pattern, where the rate constant for the initial time release confirmed the influence of the particle size and/or enzymatic degradation rate on drug release rate.
