The formulation and evaluation of diclofenac sodium from liposomes, niosomes and nanoemulsion are analyzed. The release profiles of diclofenac sodium were almost similar in all the formulations. It is found that 85% of diclofenac sodium diffused out from the colloidal systems within 8hrs and practically all the drug was released within 12hrs. In addition to this controlled release, the similari...

The central dogma of nanoemulsion formation using low-energy methods at constant temperature-popularly known as the emulsion inversion point (EIP) method-is that to create O/W nanoemulsions, water should be added to a mixture of an oil and surfactant. Here, we demonstrate that the above order of mixing is not universal and a reverse order of mixing could be superior, depending on the choice of ...

Nanoemulsions are particularly suitable as a platform in the development of delivery systems. The type of nanoemulsion with a higher stability will offer an advantage in the preparation of a delivery system for lipophilic drugs. Nanoemulsions can be fabricated by different processing methods, which are usually categorized as either high- or low-energy methods. In this study, a comparison betwee...

Surfactant stabilized oil-in-water nanoemulsions pose a severe threat to both the environment and human health. Recent development of membrane filtration technology has enabled efficient oil removal from oil/water nanoemulsion, however, the concurrent removal of surfactant and oil remains unsolved because the existing filtration membranes still suffer from low surfactant removal rate and seriou...

BACKGROUND The stability of protein drugs remains one of the key hurdles to their success in the market. The aim of the present study was to design a novel nanoemulsion drug-delivery system (NEDDS) that would encapsulate a standard-model protein drug--bovine serum albumin (BSA)--to improve drug stability. METHODS The BSA NEDDS was prepared using a phase-inversion method and pseudoternary phas...

ABSTRACT: 10 Owing to the complexity of neurodegenerative diseases, multiple cellular types need to be targeted 11 simultaneously in order for a given therapy to demonstrate any major effectiveness. Ultrasound12 sensitive coated microbubbles (in a targeted nanoemulsion) are available. Versatile small-molecule 13 drug(s) targeting multiple pathways of Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis are known. ...

BACKGROUND Topical administration of dapsone can be an alternative route for treatment of leprosy and can also provide new therapeutic applications for an established drug. However, the physicochemical properties of dapsone make it difficult to incorporate into conventional formulations. The current study was directed toward developing a stable nanoemulsion that contains dapsone which can be ad...

Nanoemulsion is one the most attractive drug delivery for researchers to treat fungal diseases and getting interested in increasing solubility of low soluble drugs. The objective this research was develop a topical nanoemulsion formulation Posaconazole with intention enhance its aqueous local action. By employing High Pressure Homogenization (HPH) method, oil water formulated 0.2% cinnamon as l...

Indomethacin, a potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, has been used in the treatment of various kinds of pains, inflammation and arthritis. However, oral administration of indomethacin produces serious gastrointestinal adverse effects. Therefore the aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects, skin irritation, activation energy and histopathology of indo...
