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...

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) are colloidal carrier systems providing controlled release profiles for many substances. Clotrimazole-loaded SLN and NLC were prepared by the hot high pressure homogenization technique in order to evaluate the physical stability of these particles, as well as the entrapment efficiency of this lipophilic drug and its in vitr...

The nano drug delivery system has emerged as a novel therapeutic approach for improved efficacy of the existing molecules. Polymeric nanoparticles, lipid based nanoparticles such solid (SLNs), nanostructured carriers, conjugates, ethosomes, liposomes, and self-emulsifying systems are few carriers used delivery. Among SLNs promising in terms biocompatible carrier enhancing bioavailability, contr...
