What is Pectin Hydrogel as Oral Drug Carrier about?

This study focused on developing a pectin-based hydrogel extracted from dragon fruit peels as a drug carrier for oral delivery. Hydrogels with 1.0% extracted pectin showed the best swelling performance at pH 7. Drug encapsulation efficiency, release profile, and biodegradation tests were conducted in simulated gastric, intestinal, and colonic fluids. Toxicity tests using zebrafish embryos showed no toxicity of the hydrogel. This pectin-based hydrogel has potential as an oral drug carrier due to its pH-respo
