Methods The secondary structure of native insulin, mixture of insulin with liposome(sample Ⅰ) and insulin encapsulated within liposome( sample Ⅱ) were determined by FTIR (FourierTransform Infrared) spectroscopy. Results The secondary structure of insulin encapsulated withinliposome(Ⅱ) are similar with the secondary structure of native insulin. The difference existed inthe amount of α-helices (from 36% of insulin to 31% of sample Ⅱ) and β-sheet(from 48% of insulinto 51% of sample Ⅱ). The content of α-helices and β-sheet of insulin in sample Ⅰ was found to bevery close to that of sample Ⅱ. The results revealed that the insulin encapsulated within liposomepossibly spread on the surface of liposome, without inserting into the liposome membrane.Conclusion The secondary structure of insulin encapsulated within liposome is similar with thenative insulin.展开更多
