Catechins are isolated from tea leaves and shown to have pharmacological activities. However, the permeability and absorption capacity of the digestive tract is low, thus affecting the value of bioavailability. Self-nano emulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) is formulated as a breakthrough in nano delivery to increase the value of bioavailability and stability in a model of natural compounds, namely catechins. This study applies chemometrics to the simplex centroid design (SCD) to analyze the catechin-SNEDDS pre-optimization design. The factors defined include oleic acid, croduret 50-SS, and propylene glycol. Evaluation parameters include emulsification time, percent transmittance (%T), freeze-thaw, and endurance test. The results showed a formula that met the requirements at the time of emulsification, stability, and %T. There were four clusters of results from the principal component analysis - cluster analysis (PCA-CA) in the SCD formula. The evaluation between responses in the SCD optimization design is indicated to have a positive correlation. Analysis using multivariate chemometric can describe the characteristics of each formula and the response based on the parameters used, which refers to the similarity, grouping, and correlation of each formula and response. The PCA-CA technique can group formulas from SCD in similar clusters and provide important information regarding response patterns or correlations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
