Co-encapsulation of curcumin and boswellic acids in chitosan-coated niosome: an in-vitro digestion study

Preparation and Characterization of Patch Loaded with Clarithromycin Nanovesicles for Transdermal Drug Delivery

“…The niosomes prepared using Span 60 showed significantly ( p < 0.05) higher particle sizes than the particles prepared using Tween 80. As the HLB value decreased, the more lipophilic surfactant was present, and the PS increased, which was in agreement with literature [ 39 , 40 ]. Formerly, a study by Shehata and Elsewedy [ 41 ] reported that Tween 80 formed smaller niosomes than Span 60, with the particle diameters ranging from 343 to 461 nm when the Tween 80 concentration increased from 25 to 100 mol/mL, respectively.…”

Composition, preparation methods, and applications of nanoniosomes as codelivery systems: a review of emerging therapies with emphasis on cancer

“…55 To evaluate chitosan hydrogel, in another experiment, chitosan-coated niosome (ChN) was utilized to increase the bioavailability of both boswellic acid (BA) and CUR drugs. 181 Many studies have suggested different medicinal effects of BA, which include anti-carcinogen, anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritis, and memory impairment features. However, there are disadvantages, including low solubility and low bioavailability.…”

“…The creation of a thicker chitosan coat and chitosan bridges among particulates caused an increase in particle size at higher chitosan levels. 181 In advanced technologies, the prototyping method and nanotechnology have opened novel cancer cell treatment areas. 183 The emergence of the 3D-printing method has produced numerous updated possibilities for polymer hydrogel-based drug administration approaches, particularly for cancer therapy.…”
