Abstract
Nanoemulsions have emerged as versatile colloidal dispersions with promising applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, food, and cosmetics. These nano-sized emulsions, stabilized by surfactants, offer unique advantages such as enhanced ingredient penetration efficacy and versatile dosage forms. This article provides an extensive overview of nanoemulsions, covering their composition, methods of preparation, and applications in drug delivery, the food industry, and cosmetics. Various high-energy and low-energy methods for nanoemulsion preparation are discussed, along with their advantages and limitations. Additionally, the article highlights the potential of nanoemulsions in improving drug bioavailability, stability, and therapeutic efficacy, especially in oral, topical, parenteral, intranasal, ocular, and pulmonary drug delivery. Furthermore, nanoemulsions are explored as carriers for encapsulating flavoring agents, nutraceuticals, and natural preservatives in the food industry, as well as their use in cosmetic formulations. Current clinical trials involving nanoemulsions and recent patents in the field are also summarized, providing insights into ongoing research and development efforts. Lastly, a selection of marketed nanoemulsion formulations is presented, showcasing their practical applications and commercial availability. Overall, nanoemulsions hold great promise as effective delivery systems with broad applications across various industries.
期刊介绍：
Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology publishes original manuscripts, full-length/mini reviews, thematic issues, rapid technical notes and commentaries that provide insights into the synthesis, characterisation and pharmaceutical (or diagnostic) application of materials at the nanoscale. The nanoscale is defined as a size range of below 1 µm. Scientific findings related to micro and macro systems with functionality residing within features defined at the nanoscale are also within the scope of the journal. Manuscripts detailing the synthesis, exhaustive characterisation, biological evaluation, clinical testing and/ or toxicological assessment of nanomaterials are of particular interest to the journal’s readership. Articles should be self contained, centred around a well founded hypothesis and should aim to showcase the pharmaceutical/ diagnostic implications of the nanotechnology approach. Manuscripts should aim, wherever possible, to demonstrate the in vivo impact of any nanotechnological intervention. As reducing a material to the nanoscale is capable of fundamentally altering the material’s properties, the journal’s readership is particularly interested in new characterisation techniques and the advanced properties that originate from this size reduction. Both bottom up and top down approaches to the realisation of nanomaterials lie within the scope of the journal.
