Abstract
- Nano-microfibers were made from fish sarcoplasmic proteins (FSP) using electrospinning.
- Fiber morphology was strongly dependent on FSP concentration.
- The FSP fibers were insoluble in aqueous media, but degradable when exposed to proteolytic enzymes.
- The degradation products of the fibers were inhibitors of the diabetes related enzyme DPP-IV.
- Ala-Trp was encapsulated. Within 30Â min in gastric buffer â¼70% of Ala-Trp was released, whereas in intestinal buffer â¼70% was released after 15Â min.
