Resveratrol was investigated in terms of its stability, biocompatibility and intestinal permeability across Caco-2 cell monolayers in its free form or encapsulated in solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs). SLNs and NLCs presented a mean diameter between 160 and 190 nm, high negative zeta potential of -30 mV and resveratrol entrapment efficiency of 80%, sugges...

Ethanolic extract of Polygala senega (EEPS) had little or no cytotoxic effects on normal lung cells, but caused cell death and apoptosis to lung cancer cell line A549. In the present paper, ethanolic root extract of P. senega (EEPS) was nanoencapsulated (size: 147.7 nm) by deploying a biodegradable poly-(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA). The small size of the NEEPS resulted in an enhanced cellul...

Nanotechnology has a great role in food industry terms of processing, packaging, preservation and storage. provides wide variety possibilities applications. is now leading the main field with development other technologies. Usage nanoencapsulation technique to use bioactive compound for successful delivery. In addition, enables control flavour release during processing storage at desired time p...

The development of biodegradable nanoparticles is an important tool for the biological transport chemical compounds. nanoencapsulation reduces biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic drawbacks compounds enhances their properties. Naturally occurring polymers such as proteins polysaccharides have been widely applied in nanostructured systems several therapeutic agents. Among them chitosan, a crust...
