Controlled release from zein matrices: Interplay of drug hydrophobicity and pH [PDF]

, 2015
Purpose: In earlier studies, the corn protein zein is found to be suitable as a sustained release agent, yet the range of drugs for which zein has been studied remains small.

An investigation into the adjuvanticity and immunogenicity of zein microspheres being researched as drug and vaccine carriers. [PDF]

, 2006
We have determined whether zein microspheres could act as vaccine adjuvants i.e. increase the immune responses to co-administered immunogens. Ovalbumin (model antigen)-loaded zein microspheres, blank zein microspheres and ovalbumin solution were ...
