基于薄荷油为油相的红花提取物自微乳凝胶递送系统制备研究

Preparation of self-microemulsion gel drug delivery system of Carthamus tinctorius extract based on Mentha haplocalyx oil as oil phase

目的制备以薄荷油(Menthaha plocalyx oil,MPO)为油相的红花提取物(Carthamus tinctorius extract,CTE)自微乳凝胶递送系统(CTE-SMEDDS-BGs)。方法以MPO为油相,CTE为水相,采用伪三元相图法优选载药自微乳处方,采用单因素法筛选凝胶工艺与处方,并对其外观性状、黏度和pH值进行评价。结果所得CTE-SMEDDS-BGs最佳处方工艺:F68为乳化剂,无水乙醇为助乳化剂,乳化剂与助乳化剂比例(Km)为1∶1,乳化剂和助乳化剂总量(TS)与MPO的比例为8∶2,卡波姆2%,甘油6%,CTE5m L。处方量自微乳加入溶胀后的凝胶基质,三乙胺调节pH值至6.0即得CTE-SMEDDS-BGs;其外观为黄色半透明、黏稠度适中、均匀细腻、不油腻,易涂展的胶状凝胶,黏度为4.98×10~4m Pa·s(RSD为1.53%),pH为6.04(RSD为0.44%)。结论制得的薄荷油为油相的CTE-SMEDDS-BGs,制备简便,方法稳定,符合凝胶局部外用制剂要求。

Objective To prepare the self-microemulsion gel drug delivery system of Carthamus tinctorius extract based on Mentha haplocalyx oil as oil phase. Methods M. haplocalyx oil was used as the oil phase, and C. tinctorius extract was used as the water phase. The prescription of self-microemulsion were optimized by pseudo-ternary phase diagram, the process and prescription of gel were screened by single-factor method and the appearance, viscosity and pH value were evaluated. Results The optimal formulation of CTE-SMEDDS-BGs was as following: F68 was the emulsifier, anhydrous ethanol was the co-emulsifier, the Km ratio was 1∶1, and the total amount of emulsifier and co-emulsifier to M. plocalyx oil was 8∶2, carbopol-980 was 2%, glycerin was 6%, and C. tinctorius extract was 5 mL. The CTE-SMEDDS-BGs was obtained by adding the CTE-SMEDDS into swelling gel matrix and triethylamine was used to adjust the pH to 6.0. The characteristics of appearance were yellow translucent, moderate viscosity, uniform and delicate, non-greasy, and easy to spread on the skin, the viscosity was 4.98 × 10~4 mPa·s(RSD was 1.53%), pH was 6.04(RSD was 0.44%). Conclusion The CTE-SMEDDS-BGs with M. plocalyx oil as oil phase is simple and stable, and meets the requirements of gel topical preparations.
