Chapter 7 Cutting-edge innovations: advances and applications of micro/nanoemulsions in gel formulations
-
Hend I Shahin
Abstract
Micro- and nanoemulsions (ME/NE) in a gel-based formulation have been explored significantly for pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications. This chapter will summarize the role of ME/NE topical gel formulations, discuss the application of various excipients, describe the characterization tests used for formulation evaluation, list the dermatological/cosmetic applications of such formulations, and elaborate on future trends in this field. Overall, the studies highlight the significance of ME/NE in gel-based topical formulations and their role in formulation innovation for future applications.
