The developed formulations\u0000were statistically optimized by two factors, three levels by 3-level factorial design and were evaluated for vesicle size, entrapment efficiency, zeta potential, transmission electron microscopy, and invitro drug release. The optimized FVS niosome being transformed to gel formulation was likewise\u0000analyzed for in-vitro skin permeability study, lipase action, and stability study. The composition of\u0000an improved FVS niosome revealed vesicle size, entrapment effectiveness, zeta potential of 105.3 ±\u000012.4nm, 74.5 ± 0.86% and -36.2±7mV, respectively, with spherical morphology. The FVS Niosomal gel demonstrated improved skin permeation compared to Orlistat. Furthermore, lipase activity\u0000showed better activity when compared with standard Orlistat drugs. Niosomal particles were discovered as a reliable nanovesicular carrier for the transdermal administration of FVS.\u0000","PeriodicalId":514736,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscience & Nanotechnology-Asia","volume":" 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140688747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
