Methods SLN suspension was prepared by high-pressurehomogenization technique, and then mixed with carbomer gel matrix to get SLN gel. The morphology,particle size with polydispersi-ty index (PI) and zeta potential were examined by atomic forcemicroscopy (AFM) and photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS). The entrapment efficiency, stability andin vitro drug release were also studied. The transdermal drug delivery through porcine ear skin wasevaluated using modified Franz diffusion cells. Results The SLN had a spherical shape with theaverage size of (95.5 - 186.2) nm, the zeta potential of (-26.3- -15.7) mV and the entrapmentefficiency of 67.4%-90.3% for different TAA encapsulated compounds. TAA-SLN carbomer gel had goodstability, the release profile in vitro fitted Higuchi equation. In comparison with conventionalhydrogels, TAA-SLN carbomer gel resulted in higher drug permeation amount and drug deposition withinporcine ear skin after 24 h penetration experiment. Conclusion TAA-SLN carbomer gel is preparedwith stable physicochemical properties. The release profile and improved drug permeation into skinmake it be a promising vehicle for transdermal drug delivery.展开更多
