Formulation and Evaluation of Aqueous Azadirachta indica Phytosome
Abstract: A phytosome is a complex created through the union of a natural compound, typically a plant extract, with a phospholipid. Phospholipids play a crucial role in cell membranes, possessing a structure comprising a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and hydrophobic (water-repelling) tails. This distinctive structure enables phospholipids to construct lipid bilayers, fundamental elements of cell membranes. Phytosome increases the bioavailability, and absorption of active chemical constituents in the extract with the help …
