GlossarySolid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs)

tiny particles made from fats to deliver drugs effectively

Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs) are tiny particles made from solid lipids that are used to deliver drugs, vitamins, or other active ingredients in a controlled manner. They are advantageous because they can improve the stability and bioavailability of the substances they carry, making them more effective. SLNs are particularly useful in medical and cosmetic applications, including treatments for hair loss and skin conditions.
