Formulation & optimization of long chain fatty acid nanoemulsion using high pressure homogenizer / Mohd Hafizi Mohamaddan

Nanoemulsion is a class of emulsions with small, uniformly distributed droplets particle size in the range of 20-500 nm. Nanoemulsions are not thermodynamically stable and their characteristics will depend on the preparation method. One the most common method used to produce nano-emulsion in pharmac...
