Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoparticle encapsulation improves oral bioavailability of curcumin by at least 9-fold when compared to curcumin administered with piperine as absorption enhancer.

TL;DR: The in vivo pharmacokinetics revealed that curcumin entrapped nanoparticles demonstrate at least 9-fold increase in oral bioavailability when compared toCurcumin administered with piperine as absorption enhancer, which clearly indicate the promise of nanoparticles for oral delivery of poorly bioavailable molecules like cur cumin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of antioxidants in prophylaxis and therapy: A pharmaceutical perspective.

TL;DR: Novel drug delivery systems (NDDS) would also help in delivery of these antioxidants by oral route, as this route is of prime importance when antioxidants are intended for prophylactic purpose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation and characterization of cationic PLGA nanospheres as DNA carriers.

TL;DR: From the gel electrophoresis studies, it is found that the charge on the nanospheres is sufficient to efficiently bind the negatively charged DNA electrostatically and could serve as potential alternatives of the existing negatively charged nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estradiol loaded PLGA nanoparticles for oral administration: effect of polymer molecular weight and copolymer composition on release behavior in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: The results indicate that nanoparticulate formulations are ideal carriers for oral administration of estradiol having great potential to address the dose related issues of Estradiol.
