The goal of this study was to develop and evaluate the potential use of liposome and transfersome vesicles in the transdermal drug delivery of meloxicam (MX). MX-loaded vesicles were prepared and evaluated for particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency (%EE), loading efficiency, stability, and in vitro skin permeation. The vesicles were spherical in structure, 90 to 140 nm in size, and negatively charged (-23 to -43 mV). The %EE of MX in the vesicles ranged from 40 to 70%. Transfersomes provided a significantly higher skin permeation of MX compared to liposomes. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis indicated that the application of transfersomes significantly disrupted the stratum corneum lipid. Our research suggests that MX-loaded transfersomes can be potentially used as a transdermal drug delivery system.
本研究的目的是开发并评估脂质体和传递体囊泡在美洛昔康(MX)经皮给药中的潜在应用。制备了载有MX的囊泡,并对其粒径、zeta电位、包封率(%EE)、负载效率、稳定性和体外皮肤渗透进行了评估。这些囊泡结构呈球形,大小为90至140纳米,带负电荷(-23至-43毫伏)。MX在囊泡中的%EE范围为40%至70%。与脂质体相比,传递体使MX的皮肤渗透显著更高。傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)和差示扫描量热法(DSC)分析表明,传递体的应用显著破坏了角质层脂质。我们的研究表明,载有MX的传递体有潜力用作经皮给药系统。
