Surfactants are essential in the manufacture of polymeric nanoparticles by emulsion
formation methods and to preserve the stability of carriers in liquid media. The deposition of …

The two polyhydroxy surfactants polyglycerol 6-distearate (Plurol® Stearique WL1009–(PS))
and caprylyl/capryl glucoside (Plantacare® 810–(PL)) are a class of PEG-free stabilizers …

Emulsions are liquid–liquid dispersions with one liquid phase dispersed in the other liquid
phase as small droplets. Nanoemulsions are nano-sized emulsions with sizes ranging from …

Lipid–polymer hybrid nanoparticles are polymeric nanoparticles enveloped by lipid layers
that combine the highly biocompatible nature of lipids with the structural integrity afforded by …

Nanoemulsions are kinetically stabilized emulsions with droplet sizes in the nanometer
scale. These nanodroplets are able to confine spaces in which reactions of polymerization …

Poloxamers and poloxamine nonionic surfactants have diverse applications in various
biomedical fields ranging from drug delivery and medical imaging to management of …

Nanoemulsions are isotropic, thermodynamically stable transparent (or translucent) systems
of oil, water, and surfactants with a droplet size usually in the range of 10–100 nm (1, 2) …

Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) consisted of solid lipid and liquid lipid are a new type of
colloidal drug delivery system, which offer the advantage of improved drug loading capacity …

Biodegradable nanocarriers such as lipid-or polymer-based nanoparticles can be designed
to improve the efficacy and reduce the toxic side effects of drugs. Under appropriate …

Lipid-based emulsions with particle sizes in the submicron range have been extensively
investigated as vehicles for various active agents during the last decades. This review …
