This study reports the formation of nanoemulsions from palm-kernel oil esters (PKOE)/Cremophor EL/water systems intended for topical administration of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, ibuprofen. Nanoemulsions containing 2% ibuprofen, various oil:surfactant ratios (10:90, 20:80 and 30:70) and 80% of water were selected from the ternary system of PKOE/Cremophor EL/water and prepared by the phase inversion composition (PIC) method. The characterization of the nanoemulsions such as droplet size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, stability and the permeation of ibuprofen from nanoemulsions were evaluated..
