EVALUATION OF MYRICETIN NANOPHYTOSOME WITH THIN-SONICATION LAYER HYDRATION METHOD USING ETHANOL AND ACETONE SOLVENTS

Abstract

Objective: An example of nanotechnology is the nano-phytosome, which binds active plant components to phospholipids with characteristics similar to cell membranes in order to increase the bioavailability of these components. Myricetin is the main component of the nano-phytosome. An
antioxidant with poor bioavailability and permeability, myricetin is a flavonoid chemical found in nature. This research set out to characterise the nano-phytosome myricetin formulation utilising ethanol and acetone as solvents of choice.
