Abstract

Pharmaceutical research and development is increasingly focussed on biopharmaceuticals including peptide and protein drugs. Despite their growing importance and almost 100 years of research, the vast majority are still only available by injection. Oral bioavailabilities of peptide and protein drugs are very low mainly because of the stability and permeability barriers of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
