Effect of nanoemulsion-loaded hybrid biopolymeric hydrogel beads on the release kinetics, antioxidant potential and antibacterial activity of encapsulated curcumin

Pawandeep Kour et al.

Summary: Nanoemulsion encapsulated in ionotropic hybrid hydrogel beads of alginate, chitosan, gelatin and polyethylene oxide can effectively deliver hydrophobic active ingredients like curcumin, enhancing their bioavailability and biological activities. The release behavior in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids showed faster release in gastric fluid, potentially due to mesh size, hydration extent, and interaction with Ca2+ ions.
