Konjac glucomannan with different molecular weights/poly(acrylic acid) hydrogels were prepared in this paper. The structure of the IPN hydrogels was characterized by FT-IR and SEM. The swelling ratio of these hydrogels showed they had pH-sensitive properties and the enzymatic degradation tests showed the hydrogels retain the enzymatic degradation character of KGM. Furthermore, hydrogel composed of native KGM degraded sharply in enzymatic degradation test and it had bigger swelling ratio and weight loss ratio than those hydrogels which composed of lower molecular weights KGM. Therefore, hydrogels composed of lower molecular weight might release drug more stable when they were used as drug carrier.

The present study proposes the development and optimization of a new interpenetrating polymer network (IPN), consisting of Gum tragacanth, poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), and poly(acrylamide) (PAAm), for the in situ controlled release of losartan potassium under different pH conditions at 37 °C.
