    Spatially constrained disulfide bond shuffling delays insulin aggregation and enhances neurotoxicity

    Spatial distance-confined Insulin DBS

    We previously have demonstrated the distance confinement for bicarbonate heating-induced DBS products likely ranges from 2 Å (the length for disulfide bond) to over 9 Å21. For insulin, the crystal…
