The objective of this research was to develop zein-based electrospun nanofibers (NFs) incorporated with geraniol-loaded nanoliposomes (G-loaded NLPs). Geraniol was encapsulated into NLPs with an efficiency of 79.

The GC-MS analysis of the SEO indicated the presence of various active compounds such as Thujone (21.53 %), Ledol (12.

The porosity of the hydrogel was controlled using different ratios of κ-carrageenan(C):QSM(Q) (C90:Q10, C70:Q30, and C50:Q50). The hardness of hydrogels decreased from 28.
