Abstract
The interest in Pickering emulsions is based on the possibility of replacing classical emulsifiers with solid particles. These emulsions are very attractive in the pharmaceutical field for their stability virtues and as a vehicle to deliver active ingredients. The study aimed to analyze the properties of the residual film of the Pickering emulsions on the human skin compared to conventional systems. For this project, three types of solid particles were used: titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and silicon dioxide. All of them are capable of stabilizing the oil/water interface and thus forming totally emulsified systems. To create an emulsion of reference, a classical surfactant was used as an excipient. Complementary systems containing both particles and the emulsifier were also analyzed. Then, a combined approach between physicochemical and biometrological in vivo analysis was employed. The study proved that Pickering emulsions stabilized by the metal oxides were distinct from the reference emulsion in terms of droplet sizes and organization, rheological and textural responses. Consequently, it impacted the properties of the residual film once the product was applied to the skin. The particle-stabilized emulsions formed a hydrophobic film counter to conventional excipients. Also, the Friction parameter (or the roughness of the film) was directly linked to the quantity of the particles used in the formulation and their perception on the skin surface. The use of the particles blurs the glossy effect of the oil phase. Finally, it was observed that the appearance of the residual film was impacted by the type of the particle, namely TiO2 and ZnO particles.

Abstract
Postoperative pain management is an important aspect of the overall surgical care process. Effective pain management not only provides patient comfort but also promotes faster recovery and reduces the risk of complications. Bupivacaine (BUP) and Lidocaine (LID) transdermal drug deliveries via thermoplastic polyurethane matrix (TPU) and iontophoresis technique are proposed here as alternative routes for postoperative pain instead of the injection route. Under applied electric field, the amounts of BUP and LID released were 95% and 97% from the loaded amounts, which were higher than the passive patch of 40%. The time to equilibrium of BUP turned out to be faster than the time to equilibrium of LID by approximately 1.5 times. This was due to 2 factors namely the drug molecular weight and the drug pKa value; they play an important role in the selection of a suitable drug for fast-acting or long-acting for the postoperative patients. By using this transdermal patch via iontophoresis system, BUP was deemed as the suitable drug for fast-acting due to the shorter time to equilibrium, whereas LID was the suitable drug for long-acting. The in-vitro drug release - permeation study through a porcine skin indicated the efficiency and potential of the system with the amounts of drug permeated up to 76% for BUP and 81% for LID. The TPU transdermal system was demonstrated here as potential to deliver BUP and LID for postoperative patients.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 255:128086.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) based nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated via an ionic gelation reaction modified by flaxseed gum (FG) or sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP). The average particle size, morphology, interfacial tension, and wettability of NPs were characterized. The particle size of CS-STPP-HA (hyaluronic acid)-FA (ferulic acid) NPs and CS-FG-HA-FA NPs was 400.8 nm and 262.4 nm, respectively under the optimized conditions of CS/STPP = 5:1 (w/w) or CS/FG = 1:1 (v/v) with HA concentration of 0.25 mg/mL and FA dosage of 25 μM. FG acted as a good alternative for STPP to form particles with CS in stabilizing Pickering emulsion with an internal diacylglycerol (DAG) phase of 50-80 % (v/v). The complex nanoparticles had high surface activity and contact angle close to 90 °C, being able to tightly packed at the droplet surface. The emulsions had high thermal, ionic and oxidative stability. With the aid of moisturizing polysaccharides and DAG oil, the emulsions had a good sustained-release ability for FA with deeper penetration and retention into the dermis of the skin. Thus, FG and HA-based NPs serve as green vehicles for the fabrication of novel Pickering emulsions and possess great potential to be applied as a delivery system for lipophilic active agents in functional food and cosmetic products.

Abstract
Prolonged analgesia is important to safeguard the patient's comfort and safety during and after surgery in clinical practice. To meet the demand for prolonged analgesia, medical professionals often resort to increasing drug frequency, which may lead to poor patient compliance and serious complications due to drug overdose. Therefore, it is of great interest to develop controlled-release drug delivery systems for local anesthetics, enabling slow and controlled drug release to prolong the analgesic effect and minimize systemic toxicity. In this study, we utilized an electrospinning technique to fabricate nonwoven poly(caprolactone) (PCL) fibrous membranes loaded with Ropivacaine and performed proof-of-principle experiments on both in vitro drug release tests and in vivo animal tests, to further prolong the analgesic effect of Ropivacaine and improve postoperative local pain management and chronic pain treatment. Material characterization and in vitro drug release studies confirmed the feasibility of the Ropivacaine-loaded PCL fibrous membranes for sustained release. The drug loading content and drug loading efficiency of Ropivacaine-loaded fibrous membrane are 8.7 ± 0.3 wt% and 96 ± 3 wt%, respectively. Evaluation in an animal model demonstrated prolonged anesthesia effects along with excellent biocompatibility and stability. At 72 h, the cumulative release accounted for approximately 50% of the drug loading content. This study offers novel approaches and strategies for clinical postoperative pain management and chronic pain treatment, while providing new insights and directions for the design of local anesthetic controlled-release delivery systems.

Sustained release of levobupivacaine from temperature-sensitive injectable hydrogel for long-term local anesthesia in postoperative pain management. Biomaterials 2023; 299:122129. [PMID: 37167892 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2023.122129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2022] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/20/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
Postoperative pain is a major concern for most of the surgical patients, and an inadequate postoperative pain control may cause a series of complications. With an effective pain control and lesser side effects, local anesthetics are preferred for use in postoperative pain management. However, the action duration of current local anesthetics is too short to meet the requirements of postoperative analgesia. In this study, an injectable levobupivacaine (LB)-loaded thermo-sensitive hydrogel system based on biodegradable poly(D,L-lactide)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(D,L-lactide) (PLEL) was developed for long-acting local anesthetic, in which the soluble charged cation form of LB (LB HCl) was partly alkalified to the poorly soluble base form (LB base). This hybrid LB loaded PLEL system (hLB/PLEL) is a free flowable liquid at room temperature and changes into a semi-solid hydrogel once injection in response to the physiological temperature. Then, the dissolved LB HCl could release firstly from the hydrogel contributing to a quick work, and the insoluble LB base dissolved and released gradually as the decrease of the pH during the biodegradation of PLEL hydrogel, resulting in a long-term LB release in local. The drug release behavior, pharmacokinetic, and biocompatibility of the thermo-sensitive hLB/PLEL were studied in vitro and in vivo. The anesthetic effects of hLB/PLEL system were evaluated in the rat models of sciatic nerve block, subcutaneous infiltration anesthesia and postoperative pain as well. This hLB/PLEL system generated a significantly prolonged analgesic effect in rat models, which produced approximately 7 times longer duration than 0.75% LB HCl and effectively relieved the spontaneous pain for 3 days. In general, the presented hLB/PLEL system can not only achieve a fast-acting but also sustainably release LB to block the nerve and significantly extend the effect of local analgesia, which means a promising candidate for long-acting postoperative pain management.

Abstract
High internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) stabilized with octenyl succinic anhydride starch/chitosan complexes were examined as a topical delivery vehicle for resveratrol. All resveratrol-loaded HIPPEs showed stable gel-like network structures, with the droplet size and microrheological properties largely dependent on the complex concentrations. HIPPEs exhibited strong stability when subjected to light, high temperature, UV radiation and freeze-thaw treatment, and resveratrol retention was greatly improved with the increasing addition of complexes and resveratrol. High amounts of resveratrol facilitated the antioxidant activity of HIPPEs, whereas sustained release of resveratrol was mainly related to the existence of complex interfacial layers. Moreover, HIPPEs overcome the stratum corneum barrier, with an approximately 3-5-fold increase in resveratrol deposition in deep skin compared to bulk oil. In conclusion, the emulsion composition (especially at the particle level) was vital for the effectiveness of HIPPEs as a carrier, which may provide new opportunities to design topical delivery systems.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions are free from molecular and classical surfactants and are stabilized by solid particles, creating long-term stability against emulsion coalescence. Additionally, these emulsions are both environmentally and skin-friendly, creating new and unexplored sensorial perceptions. Although the literature mostly describes conventional emulsions (oil-in-water), there are unconventional emulsions (multiple, oil-in-oil and water-in-water) with excellent prospects and challenges in skin application as oil-free systems, permeation enhancers and topical drug delivery agents, with various possibilities in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. However, up to now, these conventional and unconventional Pickering emulsions are not yet available as commercial products. This review brings to the discussion some important aspects such as the use of phases, particles, rheological and sensorial perception, as well as current trends in the development of these emulsions.

Abstract
Numerous literatures have shown the advantages of Pickering emulsion (PE) for the delivery of bioactive ingredients in the fields of food, medicine, and cosmetics, among others. On this basis, the multi-loading mode of bioactives (internal phase encapsulation and/or loading at the interface) in small molecular bioactives nanocrystal-stabilized PE (BNC-PE) enables them higher loading efficiencies, controlled release, and synergistic or superimposed effects. Therefore, BNC-PE offers an efficacious delivery system. In this review, we briefly summarize BNC-PE fabrication and characterization, with a focus on the processes of possible evolution and absorption of differentially applied BNC-PE when interacting with the body. In addition, methods of monitoring changes and absorption of BNC-PE in vivo, from the nanomaterial perspective, are also introduced. The purpose of this review is to provide an accessible and comprehensive methodology for the characterization and evaluation of BNC-PE after formulation and preparation, especially in relation to biological assessment and detailed mechanisms throughout the absorption process of BNC-PE in vivo.

Abstract
β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) can combine with oil and other guest molecules to form amphiphilic inclusion complexes (ICs), which can be adsorbed on the oil-water interface to reduce the interfacial tension and stabilize Pickering emulsions. However, the subtle change of β-CD in the process of emulsion preparation is easily ignored. In this study, β-CD and ginger oil (GO) were used to prepare the Pickering emulsion by high-speed shearing homogenization without an exogenous emulsifier. The stability of the emulsion was characterized by microscopic observation, staining analysis, and creaming index (CI). Results showed that the flocculation of the obtained Pickering emulsion was serious, and the surface of the droplets was rough with lamellar particles. In order to elucidate the formation process of the layered particles, the GO/β-CD ICs were further prepared by ball milling method, and the X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and interfacial tension analyses found that β-CD and GO first formed amphiphilic nanoscale small particles (ICs) through the host-guest interaction, and the formed small particles were further self-assembled into lamellar micron-scale amphiphilic ICs microcrystals. These amphiphilic ICs and microcrystals aggregated at the oil-water interface and finally formed the Pickering emulsion. In this study, by exploring the formation process and evolution of GO/β-CD self-assembly, the formation process and stabilization mechanism of the β-CD-stabilized GO Pickering emulsion were clarified preliminarily, with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for the development of high-performance CD-stabilized Pickering emulsions.

Abstract
Here, a cinnamaldehyde essential oil (CEO)/β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) composite with a high embedding rate (91.74 ± 0.82%) was prepared. Its structure was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Pickering emulsions prepared by β-CD and CEO/β-CD at different concentrations (1-5%) were comparatively investigated. The CEO/β-CD emulsions had better storage stability. Rheological results confirmed the emulsions were all gel-like elastic emulsions and had shear thinning phenomenon. Fluorescence microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results confirmed that the most of excessive β-CD was adsorbed on the surface of emulsion droplets as crystals, formed thick protective shell in β-CD emulsions, while the most of excessive composites were distributed in the aqueous phase forming a stable network structure in CEO/β-CD emulsions. It caused these two emulsions had different rheological properties, and different changing trends in droplet size.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the characteristics of Pickering emulsions stabilized by tea water-insoluble protein nanoparticles (TWIPNs) at different pH values. The characteristics of TWIPNs at different pH values were analysed first. The average hydrodynamic diameter of TWIPNs in the suspension was smaller than 400 nm at pH 7-11. TWIPNs at pH 3 could not be used to stabilize Pickering emulsions. The flocculation index (FI) of fresh TWIPN-stabilized Pickering emulsions (TWIPNPEs) at pH 5 was higher than those of TWIPNPEs at pH 7-11 (FI < 5%), indicating that bridging flocculation led to the aggregation of small emulsion droplets. The zeta potential of TWIPNPEs at pH 7-11 did not change after 7 d. In addition, the TWIPNPEs showed gel-like properties under neutral and alkaline conditions. These results will be helpful for broadening the application of TWIPNPEs at different pH values.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are biocompatible, cyclic oligosaccharides that are widely used in various industrial applications and have intriguing interfacial science properties. While CD molecules typically have low surface activity, they are capable of stabilizing emulsions by inclusion complexation of oil-phase components at the oil/water interface, which results in Pickering emulsion formation. Such surfactant-free formulations have gained considerable attention in recent years, owing to their enhanced physical stability, improved tolerability, and superior environmental compatibility compared to conventional, surfactant-based emulsions. In this review, we critically describe the latest insights into the molecular mechanisms involved in CD stabilization of Pickering emulsions, including covering practical aspects such as methods to prepare CD-based Pickering emulsions, lipid encapsulation, and relevant stability issues. In addition, the rheological and textural features of CD-based Pickering emulsions are discussed and particular attention is focused on promising examples for drug delivery, cosmetic, and nutraceutical applications. The functionality of currently developed CD-based Pickering emulsions is also summarised, including examples such as antifungal uses, and we close by discussing emerging possibilities to utilize the molecular encapsulation of CD-based emulsions for translational medicine applications in the antiviral and antibacterial spaces.

Abstract
Phosphorus is a ubiquitous and one of the most common elements found in living organisms. Almost all molecules containing phosphorus in our body exist as analogs of phosphate salts or phosphoesters. Their functions are versatile and important, being responsible for forming the genetic code, cell membrane, and mineral components of hard tissue. Several materials inspired from these phosphorus-containing biomolecules have been recently developed. These materials have shown unique properties at the biointerface, such as nonfouling ability, blood compatibility, lubricity, mineralization induction capability, and bone affinity. Several unfavorable events occur at the interface of materials and living organisms because most of these materials have not been designed while taking host responses into account. These unfavorable events are directly linked to reducing functions and shorten the usable periods of medical devices. Biomimetic phosphorus-containing polymers can improve the reliability of materials in biological systems. In addition, phosphorus-containing biomimetic polymers are useful not only for improving the biocompatibility of material surfaces but also for adding new functions due to the flexibility in molecular design. In this review, we describe the recent advances in the control of biointerfacial phenomena with phosphorus-containing polymers. We especially focus on zwitterioninc phosphorylcholine polymers and polyphosphoesters.

Abstract
A drug nanocrystals self-stabilized Pickering emulsion (NSSPE) with a unique composition and microstructure has been proven to significantly increase the bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. This study aimed to develop a new solid NSSPE of puerarin preserving the original microstructure of NSSPE by spray-drying. A series of water-soluble solid carriers were compared and then Box-Behnken design was used to optimize the parameters of spray-drying. The drug release and stability of the optimized solid NSSPE in vitro were also investigated. The results showed that hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), rather than solid carriers commonly used in solidification of traditional Pickering emulsions, was suitable for the solid NSSPE to retain the original appearance and size of emulsion droplets after reconstitution. The amount of HP-β-CD had more influences on the solid NSSPE than the feed rate and the inlet air temperature. Fluorescence microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy showed that the reconstituted emulsion of the solid NSSPE prepared with HP-β-CD had the same core-shell structure with a core of oil and a shell of puerarin nanocrystals as the liquid NSSPE. The particle size of puerarin nanocrystal sand interfacial adsorption rate also did not change significantly. The cumulative amount of released puerarin from the solid NSSPE had no significant difference compared with the liquid NSSPE, which were both significantly higher than that of puerarin crude material. The solid NSSPE was stable for 3 months under the accelerated condition of 75% relative humidity and 40 °C. Thus, it is possible todevelop the solid NSSPE preserving the unique microstructure and the superior properties in vitro of the liquid NSSPE for poorly soluble drugs.

Abstract
Low-environmental-impact emulsion systems for transdermal drug delivery in topical treatment have gained increasing interest. However, low stability and adverse systemic side effects severely decrease their efficiency. This study proposed a stable oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion loaded with bifonazole (BFZ) as a lipophilic drug stabilized by poly(2-isopropoxy-2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane)-modified cellulose nanocrystals (CNC-g-PIPP) as vehicles for topical delivery of lipophilic drugs. We fully characterized stability, BFZ-loaded particle-stabilized emulsions (PEs) for morphology, droplet size, and its distribution. In addition, we evaluated the in vitro drug-releasing capacity and in vitro skin permeation of BFZ in a porcine skin animal model using a side-bi-side® diffusion cell. An O/W BFZ-loaded emulsion stabilized with CNC-g-PIPP particles (BFZ-loaded CP-PE) with a small mean droplet size of 2.54 ± 1.39 μm was developed and was stable for > = 15 days without a significant change in droplet size. The BFZ-loading efficiency in PEs was 83.1 %. BFZ was slowly released over an extended period, and the releasing ratio from BFZ-loaded CP-PE was only 17 % after 48 h. The BFZ-loaded CP-PE showed a ∼4.4-fold increase in BFZ permeation and penetration compared to a conventional surfactant-stabilized emulsion and BFZ control solution. Fluorescence-labeling studies showed that BFZ-loaded CP-PE could well penetrate skin layers from the stratum corneum (SC) to the dermis. In addition, histopathology studies of porcine skin treated with the PE formulation showed an intact SC with unaltered adjacent structures and no observed signs of inflammation. Therefore, the proposed CP-PE shows great potential as a transdermal drug carrier for enhancing lipophilic drug permeation.

Abstract
The surfactant-free nature and higher stability of Pickering emulsions make them preferable solutions over conventional emulsions for skin applications. In this work, Pickering emulsions stabilized by chitosan/gum Arabic (CH/GA) nanoparticles were tested as vehicles for trans-resveratrol topical delivery. Skin absorption was examined ex vivo using Franz diffusion cells and porcine skin. Pickering emulsions allowed higher cutaneous retention and lower permeation of resveratrol, in comparison with a control solution based on a 20% v/v ethanol. The total amount of resveratrol retained in the skin, 24 h after the application, was 11.60% and 10.82% of the applied dose for the tested Pickering emulsion-based formulations prepared with 0.5% and 1.5% w/v CH/GA nanoparticles, respectively. In contrast, resveratrol skin retention from the control solution was only 2.86%. Confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed enhanced skin deposition of Nile Red to deeper layers from the Pickering emulsion-based formulations. Moreover, Pickering emulsions led to trans-resveratrol photostability increase, as measured after exposure to UV for 4 h. These results show that the CH/GA Pickering emulsions are promising solutions for the topical delivery of trans-resveratrol and have the potential to be used as green cosmetic products.

Abstract
Stable Pickering emulsions were prepared by using hybrid β-cyclodextrin/short linear glucan nanoparticles (β-CD/SLG NPs). The β-CD/SLG NPs displayed spherical shape and with an average size at around 60 nm. Newly formed SLG-β-CD structure in the nanoparticles was thought the main reason for the improved thermal stability, alleviated aggregation, and improved dispersity in aqueous systems. Depending on the contact angle and zeta-potential results, unique emulsifying mechanism of β-CD/SLG NPs was existed. The formation of inclusion complex between β-CD and oil molecules accelerated the adsorption of the whole nanoparticles at the oil-water interface, while the swelling of SLG contributed to the long-term stability (6 months) of emulsions. Once the hybrid ratio of β-CD/SLG NPs reached saturation (1:1), excess β-CD led to co-emulsifying effect of both the hybrid regions and easily dissociated β-CD regions. These hybrid β-CD/SLG NPs showed superiority with great potential in applications to the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
The main principles of green chemistry and engineering were extended to pharmaceutical formulations to prepare eco-friendly surfactant-free dry emulsion tablets (SFDETs) devoid of solvents or synthetic surfactants. Surfactant-free emulsions were stabilized by in situ cyclodextrins/sweet almond oil inclusion complexes and assessed for creaming stability. Formulation variables' effects on the emulsion droplet size and tadalafil solubility were studied using 22 × 3 factorial design. The emulsions exhibited nanometric and micrometric droplet sizes. The optimized nanoemulsion was loaded with tadalafil, morphologically evaluated, and utilized for preparing lyophilized SFDETs using different gelatin/Pearlitol® ratios. The tablets were characterized and the selected formulation was subjected to storage for 6 months. The emulsions prepared using β-cyclodextrin or higher concentrations of α-cyclodextrin showed little or no phase separation. Statistical analysis revealed significant influence of cyclodextrin type and amount on droplet size, while cyclodextrin type and oil volume exhibited significant effect on drug solubility. Morphological examination revealed non-aggregated spherical emulsion droplets. The prepared tablets showed satisfactory mechanical strength, short disintegration times, and enhanced drug dissolution. The selected tablet formulation (gelatin/Pearlitol®, 4:2 w/w) showed acceptable stability at 25°C/60% relative humidity. An overall conclusion claims that the absence of surfactants is expected to minimize the proposed tablets' in vivo toxicity and environmental concerns.
