5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Comparison of Two Encapsulated Curcumin Systems in Different Formulations for In Vitro Skin Penetration
The study investigated the encapsulation of curcumin into two polymer systems, ethyl cellulose and methyl cellulose blended ethyl cellulose, achieving a loading capacity of 46-48%. The in vitro skin penetration of these systems was tested using three formulations: o/w lotion, w/o lotion, and water suspension on porcine ear skin. Results showed that both o/w and w/o lotions enhanced follicular penetration of curcumin, with w/o lotion being more effective than o/w. Additionally, the use of ethyl cellulose blended with methyl cellulose improved curcumin penetration across all formulations. This encapsulation method provided an efficient means to deliver curcumin into the skin.
