Oral Delivery of Insulin

Oral delivery of Insulin, Second Edition is a complete reference on non-invasive insulin delivery systems, focusing on the prospect of oral delivery of peptides. The chapters in the revised edition present a comprehensive evaluation of the insulin therapy approaches, with an emphasis on insulin delivery strategies and current advances in engineered insulin delivery systems such as nano/microcarriers and hydrogels. Chapters provides an overview of diabetes mellitus, cover technological innovations, explore artificial intelligence and machine learning approaches to manage diabetes, explore a wide range of non-invasive and alternative routes of insulin administration, and much more.

Other chapters cover challenges and strategies in oral insulin delivery, the experimental techniques used to develop oral insulin carriers, the use of polymeric nano and microparticles for insulin delivery, and the use of lipids and inorganic nanoparticles in insulin delivery. The final chapter provide an overview of current clinical trials on insulin delivery and future perspectives in the area. Clinicians can benefit from this information to develop a clear understanding about the research carried out worldwide in the field of oral delivery of insulin, including those in the clinical phase.
