Nickel microspheres were synthesized via a water-in-oil reverse nanoemulsion system using nickel nitrate as the nickel precursor and hydrazine hydrate as the reducing agent. The nanoemulsion was a triton X-100/cyclohexane/water ternary system. The surface morphology of the nickel microspheres was studied by scanning electron microscopy, which indicated that the microspheres had a nanoporous str...

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN), nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) and nanoemulsion (NE) of lornoxicam (LRX) were prepared for the treatment of painful and inflammatory conditions of the skin. Compritol® 888 ATO, Lanette® O and oleic acid were used as solid and liquid lipids. SLN, NLC and NE were found physically stable at various temperatures for 6 months. Case I diffusional drug release was...

BACKGROUND Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of bronchiolitis and pneumonia in young children worldwide, and no vaccine is currently available. Inactivated RSV vaccines tested in the 1960's led to vaccine-enhanced disease upon viral challenge, which has undermined RSV vaccine development. RSV infection is increasingly being recognized as an important pathogen in the elderly, ...

Background: Psoriasis is an autoimmune-mediated disease characterized marked by thickened plaques and erythematous skin, which can be treated topical delivery of apremilast. The objective this study was to prepare hydrogel-based nanoemulsions apremilast for psoriasis therapy with a view improving its solubility permeability. Methods: Nanoemulsion components were chosen based on their solubility...

in this study formation and properties of o/w emulsion stabilized by a mixture of sodium caseinate (2, 5 and 10 wt %) and non-ionic emulsifier tween 80, sorbitan mono-9-octadecenoate, (0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt %) were investigated at various ph values(3, 5 and 7) and calcium ion concentrations (0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 wt%). emulsion samples were prepared by using a sonicator with a nominal power output...

background and objectives: recently, due to the interest of healthy lifestyle demand for research on novel methods of increasing the shelf-life of food products without the necessity of using preservatives has extended rapidly in the world. ability of nanoemulsions to improve global food quality has attracted great attention in food preservation. this is as a result of a number of attributes pe...

Garlic oils have promising possibilities for a wide range of applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Their widespread utilization is limited as they are lipophilic highly volatile. Furthermore, also possess strong odor low physicochemical stability. Therefore, present study aims to investigate characteristics garlic oil nano-emulsion through investigating its antifungal activity...
