Stingless bees are insects which are popularly bred by agriculturists in the eastern region of Thailand for the pollination of their orchards. The products from stingless bee breeding include bee honey and bee propolis. The objective of this experiment is to study the possibility of developing stingless bee propolis wax into solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) by the comparison of five surfactants (Brij 721, Cremophor WO 7, Myrj 52, Poloxamer 188, and Tween 80). Each surfactant is used at three concentrations: 10%, 20%, and 30%. A master formula is selected according to the following: physical features, particle size, zeta potential, and entrapment. The results showed that Brij 721 and Myri 52 at 20% can be used in preparing SLN and have good preservation properties for vitamin E (size: 451.2 nm and 416.8 nm, zeta potential: - 24.0 and - 32.7; % EE: 92.32% and 92.00%, resp.). Therefore, they are further developed by adding the following drugs at low solubility: curcumin, ibuprofen, and astaxanthin. It is found that a formula using the surfactants Brij 721 and Myrj 52 at 20% have similar drug entrapment. The entrapment study involves curcumin 82%, ibuprofen 40%, and astaxanthin 67%. Moreover, the cytotoxicity test of blank solid lipid nanoparticle found no toxicty in fibroblast cell line (CRL-2522). Therefore, from this study, it is determined that stingless bee propolis wax has the potential to be developed to provide more efficient SLN in the future.
无刺蜂是一种昆虫,在泰国东部地区受到农业从业者的广泛养殖,用于为其果园授粉。无刺蜂养殖的产品包括蜂蜜和蜂胶。本实验的目的是通过比较五种表面活性剂(Brij 721、Cremophor WO 7、Myrj 52、泊洛沙姆188和吐温80)来研究将无刺蜂蜂胶蜡制成固体脂质纳米粒(SLN)的可能性。每种表面活性剂使用三种浓度:10%、20%和30%。根据以下因素选择主配方:物理特性、粒径、zeta电位和包封率。结果表明,20%的Brij 721和Myrj 52可用于制备SLN,并且对维生素E具有良好的保存性能(粒径:451.2 nm和416.8 nm,zeta电位:-24.0和-32.7;包封率分别为92.32%和92.00%)。因此,通过添加以下低溶解度药物对其进行进一步开发:姜黄素、布洛芬和虾青素。发现使用20%的表面活性剂Brij 721和Myrj 52的配方具有相似的药物包封率。包封率研究涉及姜黄素82%、布洛芬40%和虾青素67%。此外,空白固体脂质纳米粒的细胞毒性测试在成纤维细胞系(CRL-2522)中未发现毒性。因此,从本研究可以确定,无刺蜂蜂胶蜡有潜力在未来开发出更高效的SLN。
