Gelatin/chitosan particles suitable for application in ocular drug administration were prepared by a two-step cross-linking process performed in an emulsion-phase separation system. The particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and laser diffractometry, and the diameters were 0.202—4.596 µm. The microparticles pH-dependent behavior was monitored by their mean diameter changes in aqueous environment. Adrenalin was drug used to study loading and release characteristics. The prepared particles were nontoxic, with the DL₅₀ values of 6.9—8.19 g/kg body mass. The in vivo biocompatibility tests consisted of subcutaneous administration of a microparticle suspension in physiological serum followed by morpho histological analysis of the implantation site. The in vivo adrenalin ocular delivery was tested on both animals and a voluntary human patient to determine the adrenalin action and by tears. The particles showed good adherent properties without irritation to the patient; adrenalin was released cleared the ocular congestion.
