The work highlights the impact of the incorporation of two pharmaceutical plasticizers viz.; glycerol (GLY; hydrophilic) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP; hydrophobic) on the controlled drug release features of a deproteinised natural rubber latex (DNRL) -based matrix. The effects of the plasticizers on the mechanical properties, glass transition temperature (T), water absorption behaviour and porosity of DNRL have been initially investigated.

Natural rubber latex was initially deproteinised (DNRL) and then subjected to physicochemical modifications to make high functional membranes for drug delivery applications. Initially, DNRL was prepared by incubating with urea, sodiumdodecylsulphate and acetone followed by centrifugation. The deproteinisation was confirmed by CHN analysis.
