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)
