A suitable formulation to improve Lavandin essential oil applicability as biocide has been study in this project. Agrochemical formulations are required to be long-term physical stable and enhance biological performance of the agrochemical. Particle encapsulation of lavandin oil had been considered as possible formulation. Two high pressure spray techniques (PGSS and PGSS drying) had been appli...

in this study, blueberry essential oil as a core material was microencapsulated with inulin and β-cyclodextrin at a ratio of 1:5 (core: wall). oil in water nano-emulsions were prepared by ultrasonic liquid processors and then transformed to encapsulate powder in spray dryer. dried powder was stored at 4 ˚c in refrigerator for determining moisture, encapsulation efficiency and morphology prop...

Essential oil extracted from Houttuynia cordata Thunb. (H. cordata) is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine due to its excellent biological activities. However, impurities and deficient preparations of the essential oil limit its safety and effectiveness. Herein, we proposed a strategy to prepare H. cordata essential oil (HEO) safely and effectively by combining the solvent extraction an...

In this study, encapsulation of agarwood oil with non-ionic surfactant, Tween 80 was prepared at critical micelle concentration of 0.0167 % v/v to produce the most stable nano-emulsion in aqueous. The encapsulation has minimized the bioactive compounds degradation in various pH conditions thus prolong their shelf life and maintained its initial oil grade. The oil grading of the prepared samples...

Nanoparticulas de quitosana (CH) e goma do angico (AG), dopadas com óleo essencial de Lippia sidoides (Ls) foram preparadas e caracterizadas em relação às suas composições, distribuição de tamanho de partículas, estabilidade térmica, bem como as liberações in vitro e in vivo. Os dados obtidos revelaram que as nanopartículas preparadas usando razões Ls:AG variando de 1:2 a 1:20, apresentaram dop...

Natural antimicrobial agents, particularly essential oils present an excellent alternative to current antibiotics due to their potent and broad-spectrum antimicrobial potential, unique mechanisms of action and low tendency to induce resistance. However their potential as a viable therapeutic alternative is greatly compromised due to their hydrophobic and volatile nature. The objective of the cu...
