pH-responsive dual-layered chitosan/Tween 80 nanoemulsions for gastrointestinal targeted delivery of curcumin

Abstract Curcumin's application is severely hindered by its hydrophobicity, poor solubility and rapid degradation. This study developed a pH-responsive, dual-layered curcumin-chitosan nanoemulsion (nCCURs) system using the phase inversion temperature method coupled with probe ult...
