Optimization of orthosiphon stamineus-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier using d-optimal mixture design for improved lipolysis activity

Orthosiphon stamineus (OS) is a Malaysian medicinal herb that was reported to have weight reduction effect and normally prepared as herbal infusion. Effective topical utilization of OS requires a good drug delivery system in order to overcome the stratum corneum to reach the targeted area. Nanostruc...
