The highest encapsulation rate was 88.1%± 1.7%, and the drug-loading amount was 4.03%±1.05%. Moreover, the leakage rate was below 2% within 45 d. Collectively, all these findings indicated that the niosomes, as a vector, could significantly improve the solubility and stability of dimethyl curcumin, offering a theoretical basis for dimethyl curcumin as an anticancer drug in medicine application.展开更多
