Drinkable Insulin "Breakthrough"

Insulin injections could become history for millions of diabetics thanks to a breakthrough by Scottish chemists. A drinkable insulin has been developed that may spell an end to the four injections a day that many patients have to endure.

 

Biochemists at Ayr's Hannah Research Institute believe their discovery will revolutionize the lives of those with the condition. Currently, insulin has to be injected because digestion would render it useless. Soon, however, it could be carried by an emulsion liquid that is stable in the stomach's acidic conditions. (The Scotsman 29/04/02; p.1)
