A novel pH-sensitive complex was prepared by using oxidized konjac glucomannan and 4-aminosalicylic acid (4-ASA) through glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. The product was characterized by FTIR and 13C NMR spectra, and the thermogravimetric analysis was also studied. The drug release studies in vitro showed that the amount of 4-ASA released from the complex was about 4%, 56% and 17% after 12 h at pH 1.2, 6.8 and 7.4, respectively. The data demonstrate that the rate of the drug release of the complex can be more effectively controlled by pH value. The results showed that the novel pH-sensitive complex could be potentially useful for colon-targeting drug delivery system.
