Development of topical/transdermal self-emulsifying drug delivery systems, not as simple as expected
(MDPI, 2020)Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDSs) originated as an oral lipid-based drug delivery system with the sole purpose of improving delivery of highly lipophilic drugs. However, the revolutionary drug delivery ... -
Formulation, characterisation and topical delivery of salicylic acid containing whey–protein stabilised emulsions
(2014)Emulsions are widely used as topical formulations in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry. They are thermodynamically unstable and require emulsifiers to stabilize them physically. A literature survey has revealed that ... -
Self-Double-emulsifying drug delivery Systems: A novel approach to topical fixed-dose anti-tubercular drug delivery
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2023-10)Mycobacteria cause numerous skin infections that are difficult to treat due to intrinsic difficulties of drug permeation into mycobacteria, and their ability to develop resistance to antibiotics. Therefore, the incidence ... -
