Abstract
Insulin crystals coated with a thin, porous membrane with electrical potential-sensitive channels — named i-crystal — show glucose- and ketone-responsive insulin release. Owing to their high drug-loading content and slow, zero-order insulin release kinetics, i-crystal can regulate the blood glucose level for more than 1 month in mice models with type 1 diabetes.
