Loading capacity and release property of piperine loaded silica aerogel and silica xerogel

The feasibility of silica matrix as an oral drug delivery carrier for natural product was explored. Piperine was loaded into silica aerogel and xerogel via three different methods; impregnation, physical mixing and direct synthesis. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis)...
