ABSTRACT
In this paper mangiferin nanoemulsions were developed using hyaluronic acid of different molecular weight, in absence or presence of Transcutol-P. An extensive study was carried out on the physico-chemical properties of nanoemulsions. Nanosizer and transmission electron microscopy showed oil droplets average size 296â¯nm with monodisperses distribution (PIâ¯≤â¯0.30). The zeta potential was highly negative (-30â¯mV). FTIR analysis confirms the existence of physical interactions among compounds. Rheological measurements allowed to conclude that all formulations present a pseudoplastic behavior (sâ¯â¼â¯0.4) in presence of the biopolymer. Moreover, mangiferin release depends on the molecular weight of the polymer. Permeability assays on pig epidermis showed that nanoemulsions with low molecular weight hyaluronic acid improve the permeation, being this effect more pronounced in nanoemulsions with Transcutol-P. Administration of mangiferin nanoemulsions on TPA-inflamed skin mice model provided an attenuation of oedema and leucocyte infiltration. Macroscopic appearance of mice skin lesions has a good correlation with the histological study. The topical application of these formulations shows an appropriate anti-inflammatory effect.
