The swelling of soy protein filamentous hydrogels and tablets thereof and the release of riboflavin from these drug delivery devices were investigated under simulated gastrointestinal conditions in the presence or absence of digestive proteases. Microscopic examination showed riboflavin arranged into crystals dispersed randomly throughout the hydrogel and the tablet powder. Swelling experiments showed a comparable behavior of water uptake for hydrogel and tablet at pH 1.2 as well as tablet at pH 7.5, featuring a low swelling rate. Hydrogel at intestinal pH began to shrink after 1 h, which coincided with a loss its structure. Riboflavin release was faster at pH 7.5 than at pH 1.2 for both devices. Swelling was the principal mechanism of riboflavin release from tablets at pH 7.5, while drug-polymer interactions slowed this release at pH 1.2. In the presence of pepsin at pH 1.2, both devices showed slow zero-order release of riboflavin for 6 h, while both were digested completely in the presence of pancreatin at pH 7.5. These results suggest that these tabletted hydrogels and the hydrogels themselves might both be useful for transporting bioactive molecules through the gastrointestinal tract and delivering them in the small intestine. Considering their non-synthetic nature, they should be of great interest for the development of innovative functional foods. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
