cucurbita pepo oil as a drug microemulsion formulation: study of phase diagram
نویسندگان
چکیده
objective(s):investigation of phase diagram of various drug formulations is effective to predict different phase region of drugs to detect final formula. the purpose of this research was to develop the ternary phase diagrams for a drug microemulsion system consisting of cucurbita pepo (pumpkin) oil, surfactant (tween 80) and deionized water. materials and methods:an electrical conductivity was used to study the properties of system. particle size analysis of microemulsion system was performed by dynamic light scattering. results:the electrical conductivity of the microemulsions increases with increasing of aqueous phase content. structural transitions from the oil-in-water to a bi-continuous phase then inversion to water-in-oil occured in the system. diameter of particles was calculated 70 nm (for 75 percent of particles) and 35 nm (for 25 percent of particles). solubility results showed that microemulsion system of cucurbita pepo oil can increase its solubility in aqueous medium due to droplet size reduction into nanometer size. conclusion:microemulsion technique can be used as a successful method in preparation of cucurbita pepo oil drug formulation.

Formulation and In-vitro Evaluation of Tretinoin Microemulsion as a Potential Carrier for Dermal Drug Delivery
In this study, tretinoin microemulsion has been formulated based on phase diagram studies by changing the amounts and proportions of inactive ingredients, such as surfactants, co-surfactants and oils. The effects of these variables have been determined on microemulsion formation, particle size of the dispersed phase and release profile of tretinoin from microemulsion through dialysis membrane. ...

The distribution of a-galactosidase (a-D-galactoside galactohydrolase IEC 3.2.1.221) in Cucurbita pepo has been determined in an attempt to assess its involvement in hydrolysis of transport sugars of the raffinose oligosaccharide series (la-1-6-galactopyranosyllj sucrose). Extracts prepared from leaves and petioles at different stages of development, roots, flowers, dry and germinating seeds, a...
متن کاملMetabolic Requirement of Cucurbita pepo for Boron.
Lateral roots of intact summer squash seedlings (Cucurbita pepo L.) were used to quantify the effects of boron deficiency on DNA synthesis, protein synthesis, and respiration. The temporal relationship between changes in these metabolic activities and the cessation of root elongation caused by boron deprivation was determined. Transferring 5-day-old squash seedlings to a hydroponic culture medi...
متن کاملPhase diagram of a lattice microemulsion model in two dimensions.
The phase diagram of a lattice microemulsion model proposed by Ciach, Høye and Stell [1,2] is studied using mean-field theory and Monte Carlo simulations. Surfactant directional degrees of freedom are summed out exactly before mean-field theory is applied, and the resulting phase diagrams are much improved compared with previous mean-field results. The critical line and tricritical point is loc...
