Objective: The purpose of this research study was to develop Ketoprofen-loaded Pickering nanoemulsion with the help of polymeric nanoparticles [NPs]. The pickering nanoemulsion  formulation is developed using Eudragit RL 100, which has the greater ability to stabilize the formulation as well as it better controls the  release of drug upon oral administration. Method: In the present study, Ketoprofen - loaded Pickering nanoemulsion were prepared using an ultrasonic emulsification process. For the preparation of the Nanoemulsion, an aqueous phase of the nanodispersion of nanoparticle is used while Captex -300 and drug premix is used as oil phase. The nanoemulsion is formulated by using a probe sonicator with different ratios of aqueous phase and oil phase. The preformulation study of polymer or drug is done by FTIR and DSC and the drug - polymer compatibility was confirmed by FTIR. The prepared formulation was evaluated for physical appearance, pH, Viscosity, In vitro drug release, Particle size, Zeta Potential, Polydispersivity index, and transmission electron microscopy and stability. The Formulation is optimized for the different concentrations of the aqueous phase and oil phase with concentrations of drug and polymer. Results: All the prepared formulations show particle size in between 100-500nm hence it indicats formation of nanoemulsion. The zeta potential is -46mv which indicates good stability of formulation. The In vitro drug release shows maximum drug release i.e. 96.93% in 10 hrs which shows that the release of drug is prolonged due to formation of Polymer NPs. Conclusion: Thus the drug release was significantly controlled and slowed down when nanoemulsion is formulated by using NPs in comparison with control. These results fulfilled the objective of the study. This study opens new prospects on the formulation of Pickering nanoemulsion.

Introduction: Luteolin (LUT) is natural flavonoid with multiple therapeutic potentials and is explored for transdermal delivery using a nanocarrier system. LUT loaded cationic nanoemulsions (CNE1–CNE9) using bergamot oil (BO) were developed, optimized, and characterized in terms of in vitro and ex vivo parameters for improved permeation. Materials and methods: The solubility study of LUT was carried out in selected excipients, namely BO, cremophor EL (CEL as surfactant), labrasol (LAB), and oleylamine (OA as cationic charge inducer). Formulations were characterized with globular size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential, pH, and thermodynamic stability studies. The optimized formulation (CNE4) was selected for comparative investigations (% transmittance as %T, morphology, chemical compatibility, drug content, in vitro % drug release, ex vivo skin permeation, and drug deposition, DD) against ANE4 (anionic nanoemulsion for comparison) and drug suspension (DS). Results: Formulations such as CNE1–CNE9 and ANE4 (except CNE6 and CNE8) were found to be stable. The optimized CNE4 based on the lowest value of globular size (112 nm), minimum PDI (0.15), and optimum zeta potential (+26 mV) was selected for comparative assessment against ANE4 and DS. The %T values of CNE1–CNE9 were found to be ˃95% and CEL content slightly improved the %T value. The spherical CNE4 was compatible with excipients and showed % total drug content in the range of 97.9–99.7%. In vitro drug release values from CNE4 and ANE4 were significantly higher than DS. Moreover, permeation flux (138.82 ± 8.4 µg/cm2·h), enhancement ratio (8.23), and DD (10.98%) were remarkably higher than DS. Thus, ex vivo parameters were relatively high as compared to DS which may be attributed to nanonization, surfactant-mediated reversible changes in skin lipid matrix, and electrostatic interaction of nanoglobules with the cellular surface. Conclusion: Transdermal delivery of LUT can be a suitable alternative to oral drug delivery for augmented skin permeation and drug deposition.

In vitro drug release was showed a biphasic release pattern with initial burst release followed by sustained release of formulated nanoparticles. The cumulative percentage of drug release was about 83.08 %.Conclusion: Formulation F2 was found to be the best formulation with a higher cumulative percentage of drug release. Modified ionic gelation method can be utilized for the development of chitosan nanoparticles of ceftriaxone sodium. Polymer and crosslinking agent concentrations and sonication time are rate-limiting factors for the development of the optimized formulation. The chitosan nanoparticles developed would be capable of sustained delivery of ceftriaxone sodium.

The present study is an attempt to synthesize nanosized guar gum carriers encapsulating celecoxib as the chemopreventive agent for experimental colorectal cancer (CRC).  Guar gum nanoparticles without celecoxib (eGGNPs) and celecoxib loaded guar gum nanoparticles (cGGNPs) were prepared by oil-in-water emulsification and in situ polymer crosslinking method. Electron microscopy, zeta potential and fourier transform infrared spectra analysis was used to affirm the size, stability and morphology of the nanoparticles. In-vitro drug release was investigated using dialysis method. Further, the effect of nanoparticles (eGGNPs & cGGNPs) was evaluated on Caco 2 colon cancer cell lines. Spherical guar gum nanoparticles were obtained in the size range of 200±6nm with zeta potential of -32.1mV indicating good stability of the GGNPs with drug loading of 30±3.2%, and drug release following zero order kinetics. The eGGNPs had no effect on Caco2 cell viability whereas the cGGNPs showed time and concentration dependent growth inhibition of Caco 2 cells. These findings suggest the successful preparation of chemopreventive nanoparticles that can be targeted as the prophylactic agent for experimental colorectal cancer.

Background: Natamycin belongs to a large group of naturally occurring polyene antifungal antibiotics derived from Streptomyces natalensis. Natamycin has a restrictive pharmaceutical role because of its extremely low aqueous solubility, which severely reduces the bioavailability of the drug. To improve the absorption of the drug, nanocrystals of natamycin were prepared and incorporated into in situ gel. Aim: To improve the solubility and absorption of natamycin nanocrystals by preparing nanocrystal in situ gel of natamycin for ophthalmic delivery Methodology: Natamycin nanocrystal was prepared using Sono-Precipitation method. Box-Behnken approach was employed to assess the influence of independent variables, namely concentration of stabilizer, sonication time and amplitude on particle size and zeta potential of the prepared nanocrystal. Optimized natamycin nanocrystal in situ gel formulations was characterized for various parameters like pH, viscosity, drug content, in vitro drug release and ex vivo permeation studies. Results: The optimized formulation of natamycin nanocrystal with a particle size of  293.9nm and zeta potential -14.6mV was incorporated into in situ gels. The pH triggered in situ gel was prepared using Carbopol and Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)., which showed clear preparation, pH of the formulation was closed to the pH of tear fluid, i.e., 7.4, viscosity showed pseudoplastic behaviour with immediate gelation remained for an extended period, and the drug content was around 99.70%. From the characterizations given above, PF-4 was optimized and evaluated for In vitro drug release showing slow and sustained release when compared to the marketed formulation and followed first-order kinetics with the diffusion-controlled mechanism. Ex vivo permeation through goat's cornea of PF-4 showed better permeation than marketed formulation. The stability studies of PF-4 showed that formulation was stable at the appropriate condition. Conclusion: Nanocrystals formulations of natamycin was successfully formulated and incorporated into in situ gels. Further in vivo studies need to be carried out for confirmation of pharmacological activity
