Abstract:In this research, the extract of Ephedra intermedia Schrenk &C.A.Mey was encapsulated using the mini‐emulsion polymerization method based on methyl methacrylate polymers with a nanometer size. The encapsulated extract was characterized using different analytical techniques. Furthermore, the loading efficiency and release of the plant extract were examined. FT‐IT spectroscopy confirmed the formation of an expectational product. The TEM and SEM imaging showed a spherical morphology for the prepared encapsula… Show more
