Permeation Parameters Calculated Following Permeability Studies of HIP-Nanocomplexes (C1 and C2) Across TR146 Cell Layers
| Formulation | Js (ng·cm−2·h−1) | Kp [(cm/h) × 10−5] | ER |
|---|---|---|---|
| Insulin solution | 7.19 ± 0.77 | 28.75 ± 3.36 | 1.00 |
| C1 | 21.53 ± 0.81**, ## | 86.12 ± 3.24**, ## | 3.00 |
| C2 | 9.89 ± 0.56 | 39.56 ± 10.21 | 1.38 |
Notes: Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 3). **p < 0.01 vs insulin and ##p < 0.01 vs C2.
Abbreviations: ER, enhancement ratio; HIP, hydrophobic ion-pairing; Js, steady state flux; Kp, permeability coefficient.
