Application of drug substances to the skin for systemic absorption or action in a particular layer of the skin is a rather old approach. However, over the last years it has received much more attention, as a consequence of the development of new membrane-moderated and matrix reservoir devices. As new reservoir systems, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) have...

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) are a well-tolerated lipid carrier system due to the employment of a physiological and/or biodegradable lipid matrix. Physicochemical properties such as particle size, polydispersity index (PI) and zeta potential are SLN quality response parameters. Increased particle size is a good indicator of in-vitro instability. This work focuses on the importance of select...

Curcumin (CU) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) of fatty acids (FA) were prepared with a coacervation technique based on FA precipitation from their sodium salt micelles in the presence of polymeric non-ionic surfactants. Myristic, palmitic, stearic, and behenic acids, and different polymers with various molecular weights and hydrolysis grades were employed as lipid matrixes and stabilise...

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder in which frequent pulmonary infections develop secondarily. One of the major pulmonary pathogens colonizing the respiratory tract of CF patients and causing chronic airway infections is Pseudomonasaeruginosa. Although tobramycin was initially effective against P. aeruginosa, tobramycin-resistant strains have emerged. Among the strategies for overcoming...

The chocolate bar is a processed cocoa product that rich in polyphenols, but polyphenols decrease during processing. Gallic acid encapsulated the form of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) can be solution for fortification phenolic compounds bars. This study aimed to obtain right concentration SLN-gallic manufacture SLN was made by double emulsion method and added fat Monoacylglycerol (MAG) Diacyl...

Iron (Fe) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN's) were formulated using stearic acid and iron absorption was evaluated in vitro using the cell line Caco-2 with intracellular ferritin formation as a marker of iron absorption. Iron loading was optimised at 1% Fe (w/w) lipid since an inverse relation was observed between initial iron concentration and SLN iron incorporation efficiency. Chitosan (...

Sinapic acid (SA), belonging to the phenylpropanoid family, and its derivatives are secondary metabolites found in plant kingdom. In recent years, they have drawn attention because of their various biological activities, including neuroprotective effects. this study, SA was incorporated into two different nanoparticle systems, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) nanostructured carriers (NLC). The i...

Coenzyme Q10 (Q10) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) were prepared by the high speed homogenization method and incorporated into Carbopol 974P hydrogels. Compritol 888 ATO (C888) was employed as the lipid base; Poloxamer 188 (P188) and Tween 80 (Tw80) were used as surfactant and co-surfactant. Optimum particle size with narrow distribution was obtained as 152.2 nm for blank and 142.4 nm fo...

As drug delivery systems Nanoparticulate widely investigated because of many advantages such as smaller size, controlled drug release potential, targeting ability, enhancement of therapeutic efficacy and reduction of toxicity. So, Solid Lipid Nanoparticles have recently received considerable attention as alternative drug delivery carrier. In this study Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs) containin...

Objective: In current research, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) are formulated for the anticancer drug, nilotinib, to conquer drawbacks associated with drug including low bioavailability and solubility. Methods: The formulation comprised of tripalmitin (lipid), poloxamer 188(surfactant) glyceryl palmitostearate (cosurfactant) by solvent evaporation technique. process variables SLN were optimize...
