Abstract | This study was aimed to formulate curcumin liposomes (CLs) by using polyol dilution method which is advantageousfor no residue of organic solvent. CLs were the mixture of hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine (PC) and cholesterol (CH) atthe molar ratio of 9:1. Propylene glycol (PG), glycerin, and polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG-400) were used as polyol solvent.Extrusion was applied after the suspension formed. The amount of polyol and curcumin and preparing temperature wereinvestigated. The obtained suspensions were observed for appearance, size, size distribution, zeta potential, morphology,and percentage of entrapment. The results showed that type and amount of polyol had an impact on both liposomal size andthe amount of entrapped curcumin, while preparing temperature was also an important factor. However, the solubility of lipidsand drug in a given polyol should be considered because of loading efficiency in the formulation |
