Scientists Create Thermostable Insulin

The thermostable insulin was developed by two scientists at the Bose Institute and the Indian Institute of Chemical Biology. The key to the breakthrough was introducing a matrix of four amino acid peptide molecules inside insulin molecules, which prevent solidification of the insulin molecules regardless of temperature. According to a faculty member at Bose Institute, “You will be able to keep it outside the refrigerator for as long as you want, something that will help diabetes patients across the world.”
