Purpose: This investigation was undertaken to develop glyceryl monostearate (Geleol)-based solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) of a hydrophilic drug ciprofloxacin HCl.

Methods: Hansen's solubility parameter study was carried out in screening of a suitable carrier and solvent system. Subsequently, SLNs were prepared by solvent diffusion evaporation method and investigated for particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential (ZP), entrapment efficiency (EE) and drug release behaviour.

Results: Variations in SLN composition resulted in particle sizes between 170 and 810?nm and ZPs between 8 and 14?mV. The maximum EE was found to be 26.3% with particle size of 188.8?nm. SLN can sustain the release of drug for up to 15?h and it shows Higuchi matrix model as the best-fitted model. SLNs were stable without aggregation of particles under storage conditions.

Conclusions: The results of this study provide the framework for further study involving the SLN formulation for hydrophilic drug molecule.  相似文献

Abstract

The feasibility of using Capmul MCM and caprylic acid (medium-chain triglyceride pre-digestion products) as the lipid phase was investigated for the development of self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) as a carrier system to enhance solubilization of poorly water-soluble danazol. The composition of SEDDS was first evaluated by phase diagrams of lipid/surfactant/water systems. Thereafter, danazol-loaded SEDDS was formulated and subjected to dispersion/precipitation study in distilled water, HCl buffer, phosphate buffer, or biorelevant aqueous media. The mechanism of danazol dispersion was investigated by comparing the solubilization capacity of blank SEDDS dispersed in various aqueous media with respective dispersion/precipitation profiles obtained. Phase diagrams showed that at least 30% (w/w) Cremophor RH40, as the surfactant, was needed to properly emulsify Capmul MCM:caprylic acid (1:1), as the lipid phase. Different extent of danazol precipitation was observed upon the dispersion of danazol-loaded SEDDS in different aqueous media. Danazol precipitation was dominated by the solubilization capacity of danazol, which was influenced by the ratio of Capmul MCM:CA and Cremophor RH40, pH of aqueous media, gastrointestinal composition, and blank SEDDS concentration.  相似文献

The aim of these studies was to determine the miscibility of different API with lipid excipients to predict drug loading and encapsulation properties for the production of solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructured lipid carriers. Five API exhibiting different physicochemical characteristics, viz., clarithromycin, efavirenz, minocycline hydrochloride, mometasone furoate, and didanosine were used and six solid lipids in addition to four liquid lipids were investigated. Determination of solid and liquid lipids with the best solubilization potential for each API were performed using a traditional shake-flask method and/or a modification thereof. Hansen solubility parameters of the API and different solid and liquid lipids were estimated from their chemical structure using Hiroshi Yamamoto’s molecular breaking method of Hansen Solubility Parameters in Practice software. Experimental results were in close agreement with solubility parameter predictions for systems with ΔδT < 4.0 MPa1/2. A combination of Hansen solubility parameters with experimental drug-lipid miscibility tests can be successfully applied to predict lipids with the best solubilizing potential for different API prior to manufacture of solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructured lipid carriers.  相似文献

Objective: The aim of this study was to prepare sildenafil citrate as solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs), in order to find an innovative way for alleviating the disadvantages associated with commercially available sildenafil citrate tablets. These limitations include poor solubility and extensive first-pass metabolism, resulting in low (40%) bioavailability and short elimination half-life (4 h).

Methods: SLNs were prepared by hot homogenization followed by ultrasonication. Solubility of sildenafil citrate in different solid lipids was measured, effect of process variables as surfactant type and concentration, homogenization time, ultrasonication time and charge-inducing agent on the particle size, zeta potential and encapsulation efficiency were also determined. Furthermore, in vitro drug release, stability and in vivo pharmacokinetics were studied in rabbits

Results: The best SLN formula consisted of 2% precirol ATO5, 0.5% phosphatidylcholine, 2.5% gelucire 44/14, 0.125% stearylamine, had an average particle size of 28.5 nm with 95.34% entrapment efficiency and demonstrated a controlled drug release over 24 h. An in vivo pharmacokinetic study revealed enhanced bioavailability by > 1.87 fold, and the mean residence time was longer than that for the commercially available tablet.

Conclusion: SLN could be a promising carrier for sustained/prolonged sildenafil citrate release with enhanced oral bioavailability.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to develop and characterize lipid nanoparticle systems for the transdermal delivery of buprenorphine and its prodrugs. A panel of three buprenorphine prodrugs with ester chains of various lengths was synthesized and characterized by solubility, capacity factor (log K′), partitioning between lipids and water and the ability to penetrate nude mouse skin. Colloidal systems made of squalene (lipid emulsion, LE), squalene + Precirol (nanostructured lipid carriers, NLC) and Precirol (solid lipid nanoparticles, SLN) as the lipid core material were prepared. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that the SLN had a more-ordered crystalline lattice in the inner matrix compared to the NLC. The particle size ranged from 220–300 nm, with NLC showing the smallest size. All prodrugs were highly lipophilic and chemically stable, but enzymatically unstable in skin homogenate and plasma. The in vitro permeation results exhibited a lower skin delivery of drug/prodrug with an increase in the alkyl chain length. SLN produced the highest drug/prodrug permeation, followed by the NLC and LE. A small inter-subject variation was also observed with SLN carriers. SLN with soybean phosphatidylcholine (SLN-PC) as the lipophilic emulsifier showed a higher drug/prodrug delivery across the skin compared to SLN with Myverol, a palmitinic acid monoglyceride. The in vitro permeation of the prodrugs occurred in a sustained manner for SLN-PC. The skin permeation of buprenorphine could be adjusted within a wide range by combining a prodrug strategy and lipid nanoparticles.  相似文献

Objective: Lopinavir (LPV), an antiretroviral protease inhibitor shows poor bioavailability because of poor aqueous solubility and extensive hepatic first-pass metabolism. The aim of the present work was to investigate the potential of the solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (S-SNEDDS) in improving dissolution rate and oral bioavailability of LPV.

Materials and methods: Liquid SNEDDS (L-SNEDDS) of LPV were prepared using Capmul MCM C8, Cremophor RH 40 and propylene glycol and their amounts were optimized by Scheffe’s mixture design. L-SNEDDS formulations were evaluated for different physicochemical and in vitro drug release parameters. S-SNEDDS were prepared by adsorbing L-SNEDDS on Neusilin US2 and characterized for solid-state properties. In vivo bioavailability of S-SNEDDS, marketed Lopinavir?+?Ritonavir (LPV/RTV) formulation and pure LPV was studied in Wistar rats. Stability study of S-SNEDDS was performed as per ICH guidelines.

Results and discussion: Optimized L-SNEDDS obtained by Scheffe design had drug loading 160?±?1.15?mg, globule size 32.9?±?1.45?nm and drug release?>95% within 15?min. Solid state studies suggested the transformation of the crystalline drug to amorphous drug. The size and zeta potential of globules obtained on dilution S-SNEDDS remained similar to L-SNEEDS. In vivo bioavailability study revealed that S-SNEDDS has 2.97 and 1.54-folds higher bioavailability than pure LPV and LPV/RTV formulation, respectively. The optimized S-SNEDDS was found to be stable and had a shelf life of 2.85 years.

Conclusion: The significant increase in drug dissolution and bioavailability by prepared SNEDDS suggest that the developed S-SNEDDS is a useful solid platform for improving oral bioavailability of poorly soluble LPV.  相似文献

Abstract

Of late, solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (S-SNEDDS) have been extensively sought-after owing to their superior portability, drug loading, stability and patient compliance. The current studies, therefore, entail systematic development, optimization and evaluation (in vitro, in situ and in vivo) of the solid formulations of (SNEDDS) lovastatin employing rational quality by design (QbD)-based approach of formulation by design (FbD). The patient-centric quality target product profile (QTPP) and critical quality attributes (CQAs) were earmarked. Preformulation studies along with initial risk assessment facilitated the selection of lipid (i.e. Capmul MCM), surfactant (i.e. Nikkol HCO-50) and co-surfactant (i.e. Lutrol F127) as CMAs for formulation of S-SNEDDS. A face-centered cubic design (FCCD) was employed for optimization using Nikkol-HCO50 (X1) and Lutrol-F127 (X2), evaluating CQAs like globule size, liquefaction time, emulsification time, MDT, dissolution efficiency and permeation parameter. The design space was generated using apt mathematical models, and the optimum formulation was located, followed by validation of the FbD methodology. In situ SPIP and in vivo pharmacodynamic studies on the optimized formulation carried out in unisex Wistar rats, corroborated superior drug absorption and enhanced pharmacodynamic potential in regulating serum lipid levels. In a nutshell, the present studies report successful QbD-oriented development of novel oral S-SNEDDS of lovastatin with distinctly improved biopharmaceutical performance.  相似文献

Background: Delivery of drugs to brain is a subtle task in the therapy of many severe neurological disorders. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) easily diffuse the blood–brain barrier (BBB) due to their lipophilic nature. Furthermore, ligand conjugation on SLN surface enhances the targeting efficiency. Lactoferin (Lf) conjugated SLN system is first time attempted for effective brain targeting in this study.

Purpose: Preparation of Lf-modified docetaxel (DTX)-loaded SLN for proficient delivery of DTX to brain.

Methods: DTX-loaded SLN were prepared using emulsification and solvent evaporation method and conjugation of Lf on SLN surface (C-SLN) was attained through carbodiimide chemistry. These lipidic nanoparticles were evaluated by DLS, AFM, FTIR, XRD techniques and in vitro release studies. Colloidal stability study was performed in biologically simulated environment (normal saline and serum). These lipidic nanoparticles were further evaluated for its targeting mechanism for uptake in brain tumour cells and brain via receptor saturation studies and distribution studies in brain, respectively.

Results: Particle size of lipidic nanoparticles was found to be optimum. Surface morphology (zeta potential, AFM) and surface chemistry (FTIR) confirmed conjugation of Lf on SLN surface. Cytotoxicity studies revealed augmented apoptotic activity of C-SLN than SLN and DTX. Enhanced cytotoxicity was demonstrated by receptor saturation and uptake studies. Brain concentration of DTX was elevated significantly with C-SLN than marketed formulation.

Conclusions: It is evident from the cytotoxicity, uptake that SLN has potential to deliver drug to brain than marketed formulation but conjugating Lf on SLN surface (C-SLN) further increased the targeting potential for brain tumour. Moreover, brain distribution studies corroborated the use of C-SLN as a viable vehicle to target drug to brain. Hence, C-SLN was demonstrated to be a promising DTX delivery system to brain as it possessed remarkable biocompatibility, stability and efficacy than other reported delivery systems.  相似文献

Purpose

To mechanistically study and model the effect of lipids, either from food or self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS), on drug transport in the intestinal lumen.

Methods

Simultaneous lipid digestion, dissolution/release, and drug partitioning were experimentally studied and modeled for two dosing scenarios: solid drug with a food-associated lipid (soybean oil) and drug solubilized in a model SEDDS (soybean oil and Tween 80 at 1:1 ratio). Rate constants for digestion, permeability of emulsion droplets, and partition coefficients in micellar and oil phases were measured, and used to numerically solve the developed model.

Results

Strong influence of lipid digestion on drug release from SEDDS and solid drug dissolution into food-associated lipid emulsion was observed and predicted by the developed model. Ninety minutes after introduction of SEDDS, there was 9% and 70% drug release in the absence and presence of digestion, respectively. However, overall drug dissolution in the presence of food-associated lipids occurred over a longer period than without digestion.

Conclusion

A systems-based mechanistic model incorporating simultaneous dynamic processes occurring upon dosing of drug with lipids enabled prediction of aqueous drug concentration profile. This model, once incorporated with a pharmacokinetic model considering processes of drug absorption and drug lymphatic transport in the presence of lipids, could be highly useful for quantitative prediction of impact of lipids on bioavailability of drugs.

Drug solubility screening in solvents and lipids is central for the development of lipid-based formulations (LBFs), and any guidance to reduce the experimental workload would be highly desirable. Solubility parameters are interesting as they can be predicted in silico for a drug but they are hardly predictable for complex lipids. This paper uses a new approach to convert an in silico drug solubility parameter to an estimated relative permittivity, εr. Diverse solvents and lipid-based excipients were then experimentally tested for εr and solubility using fenofibrate as model. The typical excipients and solvents used in LBFs showed an εr range of about 2-24, and good solubility of fenofibrate was indeed evidenced in vicinity of its estimated relative permittivity 13.2 ± 2.7. Mixtures of promising excipients were studied subsequently, and the obtained εr was predictable based on the known values of the individual components. The novel permittivity approach has demonstrated its usefulness, it has much potential in early development for ranking of suitable excipients, and it gives an initial orientation to design formulations. Future research may clarify further opportunities and limits of the novel approach for LBFs.  相似文献

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) show promise as a drug delivery system for skin administration. The solid state of the lipid particle enables efficient drug encapsulation and controlled drug release. The present study addresses the influence of lipid composition and drug substance lipid solubility on the in vitro release profile of corticosteroids from SLN for topical administration. Firstly, the effect of lipid composition on the lipid solubility and in vitro release of betamethasone-17-valerate (BMV) was determined by varying the lipid monoglyceride content and the chain length of the fatty acid moiety. Secondly, the effect of drug substance physicochemical properties was determined by studying five different corticosteroid derivatives with different lipophilicity. A high concentration of monoglyceride in SLN increased the amount of BMV released. The corticosteroid release rate depended on the drug substance lipophilicity and it was clear that the release profiles depended on drug partitioning to the aqueous phase as indicated by zero order kinetics. The results emphasize that the corticosteroid solubility in the lipid phase greatly influence drug distribution in the lipid particles and release properties. Thus knowledge of drug substance solubility and lipid polarity contributes to optimize SLN release properties.  相似文献

Context: Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) are drug carriers possessing numerous features useful for topical application. A copious scientific literature outlined their ability as potential delivery systems for lipophilic drugs, while the entrapment of a hydrophilic drug inside the hydrophobic matrix of SLN is often difficult to obtain.

Objective: To develop SLN intended for loading caffeine (SLN-CAF) and to evaluate the permeation profile of this substance through the skin once released from the lipid nanocarriers. Caffeine is an interesting compound showing anticancer and protective effects upon topical administration, although its penetration through the skin is compromised by its hydrophilicity.

Materials and methods: SLN-CAF were formulated by using a modification of the quasi-emulsion solvent diffusion technique (QESD) and characterized by PCS and DSC analyses. In vitro percutaneous absorption studies were effected using excised human skin membranes (i.e. Stratum Corneum Epidermis or SCE).

Results: SLN-CAF were in a nanometric range (182.6?±?8.4?nm) and showed an interesting payload value (75%?±?1.1). DSC studies suggest the presence of a well-defined system and the successful drug incorporation. Furthermore, SLN-CAF generated a significantly faster permeation than a control formulation over 24?h of monitoring.

Discussion and conclusions: SLN-CAF were characterized by valid dimensions and a good encapsulation efficiency, although the active to incorporate showed a hydrophilic character. This result confirms the suitability of the formulation strategy employed in the present work. Furthermore, the in vitro evidence outline the key role of lipid nanoparticles in enhancing caffeine permeation through the skin.  相似文献

Objectives: This work aimed at investigating the potential of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) as carriers for topical delivery of Ketoprofen (KP); evaluating a novel technique incorporating Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and clustered bootstrap for optimization of KP-loaded SLN (KP-SLN); and demonstrating a longitudinal dose response (LDR) modeling-based approach to compare the activity of topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug formulations.

Methods: KP-SLN was fabricated by a modified emulsion/solvent evaporation method. Box–Behnken design was implemented to study the influence of glycerylpalmitostearate-to-KP ratio, Tween 80, and lecithin concentrations on particle size, entrapment efficiency, and amount of drug permeated through rat skin in 24?hours. Following clustered bootstrap ANN optimization, the optimized KP-SLN was incorporated into an aqueous gel and evaluated for rheology, in vitro release, permeability, skin irritation and in vivo activity using carrageenan-induced rat paw edema model and LDR mathematical model to analyze the time course of anti-inflammatory effect at various application durations.

Results: Lipid-to-drug ratio of 7.85 [bootstrap 95%CI: 7.63–8.51], Tween 80 of 1.27% [bootstrap 95%CI: 0.601–2.40%], and Lecithin of 0.263% [bootstrap 95%CI: 0.263–0.328%] were predicted to produce optimal characteristics. Compared with profenid® gel, the optimized KP-SLN gel exhibited slower release, faster permeability, better texture properties, greater efficacy, and similar potency.

Conclusions: SLNs are safe and effective permeation enhancers. ANN coupled with clustered bootstrap is a useful method for finding optimal solutions and estimating uncertainty associated with them. LDR models allow mechanistic understanding of comparative in vivo performances of different topical formulations, and help design efficient dermatological bioequivalence assessment methods.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Introduction: The failure of many molecules as CNS bioactive compounds is due to many restrictions: poor water solubility, intestinal absorption, in vivo stability, bioavailability, therapeutic effectiveness, side effects, plasma fluctuations, and difficulty crossing physiological barriers, like the brain blood barrier (BBB), to deliver the drug directly to the site of action.

Area covered: Nanotechnology-based approaches with the employment of liposomes, micelles, dendrimers, and solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) as drug delivery systems, are used to overcome the above reported limitations. Here, we focus on the delivery of drugs based on SLN formulation to treat neurodegenerative diseases. Notably, SLN have the ability to protect drugs from chemical and enzymatic degradation, direct the active compound towards the target site with a substantial reduction of toxicity for the adjacent tissues, and pass physiological barriers increasing bioavailability without resorting to high dosage forms.

Expert opinion: We believe that SLN could represent a suitable tool to pass the BBB and permit drugs to reach damaged areas of the CNS in patients affected by neurodegenerative pathologies, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.  相似文献

Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) loaded with the poorly water-soluble drug tamoxifen citrate (TC) on the in vitro antitumor activity and bioavailability of the drug. TC-loaded SLN were prepared by solvent injection method using glycerol monostearate (GMS) or stearic acid (SA) as lipid matrix. Poloxamer 188 or tween 80 were used as stabilizers. TC-loaded SLN (F3 and F4) prepared using GMS and stabilized by poloxamer 188 showed highest entrapment efficiency % (86.07?±?1.74 and 90.40?±?1.22%) and reasonable mean particle sizes (130.40?±?9.45 and 243.80?±?12.33?nm), respectively. The in vitro release of TC from F3 and F4 exhibited an initial burst effect followed by a sustained drug release. In vitro cytotoxicity of F3 against human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 showed comparable antitumor activity to free drug. Moreover, the results of bioavailability evaluation of TC-loaded SLN in rats compared to free TC indicated that 160.61% increase in the oral bioavailability of TC. The obtained results suggest that incorporation of the poorly water-soluble drug TC in SLN preserves the in vitro antitumor activity and significantly enhance oral bioavailability of TC in rats.  相似文献

Purpose: The aim of this research was to study whether the bioavailability of nitrendipine (NDP) could be improved by administering nitrendipine solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) duodenally to rats.

Methods: Nitrendipine was incorporated into SLN prepared by hot homogenization followed by ultrasonication method. SLN were produced using various triglycerides (trimyristin, tripalmitin and tristearin), soy phosphatidylcholine 95%, poloxamer 188 and charge modifiers (dicetyl phosphate, DCP and stearylamine, SA). Particle size and charge measurements were made with a Malvern Zetasizer. Pharmacokinetics of nitrendipine SLNs (NDP-SLNs) after intravenous (i.v.) and intraduodenal (i.d.) administration to conscious male Wistar rats were studied. Tissue distribution studies of NDP-SLNs were carried out in Swiss albino mice after i.v. administration and compared to nitrendipine suspension (NDP-Susp).

Results: Average size and zeta potential of SLNs of different lipids, with and without charge modifiers ranged from 101.9 ± 3.0 to 123.5 ± 3.0 nm and ? 35.1 ± 0.5 to +34.6 ± 2.3 mV, respectively. AUC(0–∞) was increased (up to 4.51-folds) and clearance was decreased (up to 4.54-folds) after i.v. administration of NDP-SLNs with and without charge modifiers compared to NDP-Susp. Effective bioavailability of NDP-SLNs were 2.81–5.35-folds greater after i.d. administration in comparison with that of NDP-Susp. In tested organs, the AUC and MRT of NDP-SLNs were higher than those of NDP-Susp especially in brain, heart and reticuloendothelial cells containing organs.

Conclusions: SLN are suitable drug delivery systems for the improvement of bioavailability of nitrendipine. Negatively and positively charged SLN were better taken up by the liver and brain, respectively.  相似文献

Abstract

Context: Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) are among most promising tools for improving oral peptide bioavailability.

Objective: In this study, in vitro protective effect of SEDDS containing desmopressin against presystemic inactivation by glutathione and α-chymotrypsin was evaluated.

Materials and methods: The partitioning coefficient (log P) of desmopressin was increased via hydrophobic ion pairing using anionic surfactants. Solubility studies were performed to select the appropriate solvents for SEDDS preparation. Subsequently, droplet size and emulsification properties of 22 SEDDS formulations were evaluated. Moreover, the peptide-surfactant complex was dissolved in two chosen SEDDS formulations. Finally, SEDDS containing desmopressin were characterized regarding lipase stability, toxicity, and in vitro protective effect toward glutathione and α-chymotrypsin.

Results: Desmopressin log P was increased from initial ?6.13 to 0.33 using sodium docusate. The resulting desmopressin docusate complex (DES/AOT) was incorporated in two different SEDDS formulations, containing Capmul 907 P as main solvent. DES/AOT-SEDDS-F4 (containing 0.07% w/w DES/AOT) was composed of 50% Capmul 907P, 40% Cremophor RH40, and 10% Transcutol. The comparatively more hydrophilic formulation DES/AOT-SEDDS-F15 (containing 0.25% w/w DES/AOT) consisted of 20% Capmul 907P, 40% Acconon MC8-2, and 40% Tween 20. Both formulations were stable toward digestion by lipase and protected desmopressin toward α-chymotrypsin degradation. Moreover, DES/AOT-SEDDS-F4 also protected the peptide from thiol/disulfide exchange reactions with glutathione and was not cytotoxic at a concentration of 0.375% (w/w).

Conclusion: DES/AOT-SEDDS-F4 protected desmopressin from in vitro glutathione and α-chymotrypsin degradation. DES/AOT-SEDDS-F4 was metabolically stable and nontoxic. Therefore, it could be considered as a potential delivery system for oral desmopressin administration.  相似文献

Abstract

Consumption of alcoholic beverages with sustained-release oral dosage forms may pose a risk to patients due to potential alcohol-induced dose dumping (ADD). Regulatory guidances recommend in vitro dissolution testing to identify the risk of ADD, but the question remains whether currently proposed test conditions can be considered biopredictive. The purpose of this study was to evaluate different dissolution setups to assess ADD, and the potential of combined in vitroin silico approach to predict drug absorption after concomitant alcohol intake for hydrophilic and lipophilic sustained-release tablets containing ibuprofen or diclofenac sodium. According to the obtained results, the impact of ethanol was predominantly governed by the influence on matrix integrity, with the increase in drug solubility being less significant. Hydrophilic matrix tablets were less susceptible to ADD than lipophilic matrices, although the conclusion on formulation ethanol-vulnerability depended on the employed experimental conditions. In silico predictions indicated that the observed changes in drug dissolution would not result in plasma concentrations beyond therapeutic window, but sustained-release characteristics of the formulations might be lost. Overall, the study demonstrated that in vitroin silico approach may provide insight into the effect of ADD on drug clinical performance, and serve as a tool for ADD risk assessment.  相似文献

Abstract

Idebenone (IDE) is a lipophilic benzoquinone electron carrier synthetic analogue of coenzyme Q10, which behaves as an antioxidant and free radical scavenging molecule. Recently, the therapeutic application of IDE in Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy has been discussed. This work was aimed at evaluating the encapsulation of IDE in solid–lipid nanoparticles (SLN). In particular, we tested the possibility of adapting the quasi-emulsion solvent diffusion technique, already proposed to produce polymeric nanoparticles, to prepare positively charged SLN with different compositions. Such a charge, due to the addition of a cationic lipid, would facilitate the interaction with the negatively charged eye surface epithelium, with a consequent longer pre-corneal residence time of the colloidal systems. In a preliminary evaluation of the produced IDE-loaded SLN, the antioxidant activity of the drug was demonstrated using an oxygen radical absorbance capacity assay. Encapsulation of the drug in the nanocarrier systems seems able to protect IDE from degradation and prolong its antioxidant potential.  相似文献
