Article Synopsis
- 4-n-butylresorcinol (4-nBR) is a skin-lightening agent but faces challenges like poor solubility, low stability, and skin irritation, limiting its use.
- This study successfully turned 4-nBR into a nanoemulsion (4-nBR-NE), which improves solubility and stability while reducing skin irritation.
- The resulting 4-nBR-NE has a uniform particle size, high encapsulation rate, and excellent stability, making it suitable for skin treatments in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.
In the study, lycopene and resveratrol nanoemulsion hydrogel beads were prepared by using agarose‑sodium alginate as a carrier and the semi-interpenetrating polymer network technique, characteristics and morphologies were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, fluorescence microscopy, rheological measurement. The synergistic antioxidant effect of lycopene and resveratrol was confirmed, the best synergistic antioxidant performance is achieved when the ratio of 1:1. To increase the solubility and improve the stability, the lycopene was prepared as solid dispersion added to the nanoemulsion.
