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 …

“DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF PHYTOSOMES FOR THE TREATMENT OF ANTI-CANCER ACTIVITY BY USING THE Spirulina (Arthospira Plantesis) EXTRACT”
Abstract: This study aims to investigate and evaluate spirulina's anticancer properties.The current research is centred on obtaining a Spirulina-containing drug. The goal is to design and create Phytosomes, characterizing them based on relevant and crucial parameters. The process of solvent evaporation was utilized in the creation of Phytosomes. Various parameters such as zeta potential, particle size, infra-red spectral analysis, % drug content, encapsulation efficiency, and % drug release (% DR) were …

Revolutionizing the Delivery and Efficacy of Nutraceuticals
Abstract: The global nutraceutical market is on a remarkable growth trajectory, fueled by a growing public focus on preventive health and expected to surpass USD 900 billion by 2030. However, a major roadblock stands in the way of many promising bioactive compounds—like resveratrol, curcumin, and omega-3s—reaching their full potential: their poor absorption by our bodies. Issues like low solubility in water, instability in the gut, and rapid metabolism lead to notoriously …
