Abstract
Crosslinked poly(glycerol-co-malate)s were synthesized from L-malic acid in Krebs cycle and glycerol. The synthesized polymer was identified by FT-IR spectroscopy. Swelling degrees of the copolymer hydrogels were increased with an increase in pH of the aqueous solution. Hydrolytic behaviors of the crosslinked copolymers were investigated in various pH buffer solutions at 37℃. The Hydrolysis of the copolymers proceeded faster with increaseing pH of the aqueous solution. Releasing behaviors of the model drug such as diclofenac monosodium salt were also measured in various pH aqueous solutions at 37℃. The release concentration of diclofenac monosodium salt from the hydrogel systems was increased with increasing pH. These facts indicate that the unreacted carboxyl and hydroxyl groups in the copolymers are greatly affected by pH in the conditions.

Krebs회로 산인 L-malic acid와 glycerol의 -OH와 -COOH의 몰비를 달리하면서 가교공중합체 poly(glycerol-co-malate)s를 합성하였다. 단량체 및 합성된 가교공중합체를 적외선흡수 분광기법에 의하여 확인하였으며, pH에 따른 수팽윤도를 측정하였다. 용액의 pH가 증가함에 따라 그 공중합체 수화겔의 수팽윤도는 증가하였으며, 각 pH에서 가교공중합체는 -COOH에 대한 -OH기의 몰비가 증가할수록 수팽윤도가 감소하였다. 용액의 pH 변화에 따른 가교공중합체의 가수분해도를 37 ℃에서 조사한 결과 용액의 pH가 증가함에 따라 가수분해는 빨리 진행되었다. 모델 약물로는 diclofenac monosodium salt를 사용하여 pH에 따른 약물방출 거동을 조사한 결과 약물의 방출은 pH가 증가할수록 더 빨리 방출되었고, 합성된 가교공중합 에스테르는 미반응 카르복실기와 하이드록실기로 인해 pH에 의해 크게 영향을 받음을 확인하였다.
