Introduction: The objective of the reported work was to develop Montelukast sodium (MS) solid lipid nanoparticles (MS-SLNs) to ameliorate its oral bio-absorption. Herein, the highpressure homogenization (HPH) principle was utilized for the fabrication of MS-SLNs.

Method: The study encompasses a 23 full factorial statistical design approach where mean particle size (Y1) and percent entrapment efficiency (Y2) were screened as dependent variables while, the concentration of lipid (X1), surfactant (X2), and co-surfactant (X3) were screened as independent variables.

The solidification of deep eutectic solvent (DES) through wet impregnation techniques on inert solid carriers is an interesting approach that offers better processing attributes and excellent stability. Herein, DES of Fimasartan (FS) was developed to improve its solubility and bioavailability. The selected DES-FS was solidified by wet impregnation method employing Nesulin US2 and Aerosil 200.

Recently, the applications of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as green and sustainable solvents for the solubilization of functional foods and phytophenols have dramatically risen concerning global issues on the utilization of organic solvents. Nevertheless, developing a suitable DES system for phytocomponents to enhance its solubility and bioavailability is complex and requires a sound experimental setup. Herein, we have attempted to develop DES encompassing the choline chloride (ChCl) along with oxalic acid (OA), l-glutamine (l-Glu), urea (U), and glycerol (Gro) at different ratios to elicit the solubility and bioavailability of naringin (NAR).

The Alginate-Neusilin US2 micro-composite (MC) beads were fabricated and optimized for oral delivery of hesperidin (HES). A 3 full factorial design encompassing independent variables (factors) such as the concentration of sodium alginate (X), and Neusilin US2 (X) and dependant variables (response) such as particle size (Y), entrapment efficiency (Y), and swelling degree (Y). Nine batches were prepared by formulation design employing statistical software JMP 13.

The present investigation is aimed to design a statistically optimized self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) of eprosartan mesylate (EM). Preliminary screening was carried out to find a suitable combination of various excipients for the formulation. A 3(2) full factorial design was employed to determine the effect of various independent variables on dependent (response) variables.
