Abstract

Patients and practitioners prefer oral medication administration for systemic or local treatment due to its convenience and pleasurable experience. Nevertheless, numerous oral pharmaceutical formulations encounter various delivery challenges as a result of the hostile conditions of the gastrointestinal tract and a multitude of physiological barriers, including gastrointestinal architectural traits, biochemical variables, and physiological factors. Nanoparticle technology is often employed to surmount these challenges. Nanoemulsions, a form of nanotechnology, have been shown to improve the bioavailability and solubility of active pharmaceutical ingredients. However, despite these advantages, they often encounter adjustment challenges related to physical and chemical stability, necessitating the development of advanced delivery systems to ensure their therapeutic efficacy. Furthermore, liquid dosage forms may present several limitations for oral administration, such as inadequate masking of unpleasant tastes in the absence of flavoring agents or sweeteners, as well as difficulties in achieving accurate doses. Another potential method to enhance the stability of the drugs is the Solid Self Nano Emulsifying Drug Delivery System (S-SNEDDS). This lipid-based drug delivery device utilizes a particular porosity carrier and a Liquid SNEDDS compaction process. The S-SNEDDS formulation is a potential method of delivering medications for active substances not soluble in water, sensitive to light, or unstable in liquid form. It also exhibits benefits such as excellent stability, straightforward scalability, consistent content distribution, precise dosage accuracy, and improved patient adherence. Encapsulation of hydrophobic pharmaceuticals protects against the aqueous environment, impeding hydrolysis and enhancing the drug's stability when exposed to moisture. Another mechanism of S-SNEDDS is the controlled release mechanism, which can also enhance the drug's stability in terms of its chemical composition and therapeutic effectiveness. Therefore, S-SNEDDS have the potential to provide a viable approach to improving the stability of nanoemulsions.

Abstract

The therapeutic efficacy of natural extracts such as propolis, sea cucumber or gamat (Stichopus hermanii), and pegagan (Centella asiatica) is supported by their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and regenerative properties. However, their pharmaceutical application is limited due to poor solubility and low bioavailability. This study aimed to develop and characterize a Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery System (SNEDDS) using Labrasol to enhance the delivery and stability of a combination of these three extracts, that exhibit synergistic effects as tissue regeneration, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. SNEDDS formulations were prepared by a high energy method with Labrasol, Tween 80, and propylene glycol. The formulations were evaluated for droplet size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential, and thermodynamic stability test. The optimized SNEDDS exhibited nano-sized droplets (151.13 nm ± 17.26) with low PDI (0.39 ± 0.01) and zeta potential (-50.30 ± 1.04) within the stable range, indicating a uniform, physically stable nanoemulsion, and passed the thermodynamic stability test. In conclusion, the optimized SNEDDS formulation demonstrated nano-sized droplets with low PDI and stable zeta potential, indicating good physical stability.

Abstract

Nanoemulsions using vegetable oils as excipients have gained attention for their ability to improve the delivery and stability of bioactive compounds in pharmaceutical and food applications. This study aims to systematically compare various methods for preparing nanoemulsions with vegetable oil excipients. A narrative literature review was conducted, focusing on articles published between 2021 and 2025 from Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. The population comprised all relevant scientific articles, with purposive sampling based on inclusion criteria such as active DOI and accessibility. Data were analyzed qualitatively using content analysis to identify, group, and compare preparation methods, physicochemical characteristics, and product stability. Results indicate that high-energy methods like ultrasonication and high-pressure homogenization produce nanoemulsions with smaller, more uniform droplets and greater stability, while low-energy methods such as spontaneous emulsification are simpler but may yield less stable products. The choice of vegetable oil and surfactant significantly affects droplet size and stability. In conclusion, optimizing both the oil type and preparation method is essential for developing effective nanoemulsion-based products.

Abstract

The utilization of medicinal plants as therapeutic agents has obstacles to achieving the target action due to their low solubility. Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery System (SNEDDS) is a method developed to increase the solubility of poorly water-soluble substances, such as medicinal plant extracts. This review aims to present a narrative overview of the potential utilization of SNEDDS in enhancing the pharmacological activity of plant extracts. Article searches were conducted on several websites, such as Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. Literature studies showed that the use of SNEDDS formulations in several medicinal plants such as dayak onion, soursop leaf, papaya leaf, bay leaf, kale, sidaguri, black cumin, mangosteen peel, harendong, pineapple peel, and cocoa is more effective than the administration of extracts alone because it can increase the solubility and bioavailability of a compound. Pharmacologically, SNEDDS shows its success in enhancing antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antidiabetic, antihyperglycemic, antimalarial, immunostimulant, antimicrobial, anticancer, wound healing, and hepatoprotective activities in various plant extracts. The utilization of SNEDDS formulations in plant-based drugs has a positive impact on the advancement of drug therapy, especially for compounds that have low solubility.
