The everted rat gut sac model (ERGSM) in conjunction with high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) detection illustrated that these complexes were capable of releasing A-GAs (sustained-release behavior 1) in ERGSM, which were later subjected to hydrolysis to produce free gallic acid (GA) (sustained-release behavior 2) that could penetrate mucous membrane of small intestine.
