Opis (eng)

The aim of the present study was the characterization of fumitory extract-loaded liposomal vesicles after UV irradiation via the determination of the encapsulation efficiency, size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential, mobility, and conductivity. The encapsulation efficiency was the same before and after UV irradiation (>69%). The particle size and PDI of the UV-irradiated liposomes with the fumitory extract were 294.2 ± 4.1 nm and 0.387 ± 0.011, respectively. The zeta potential after UV irradiation was −5.51 ± 0.4 mV. The mobility and conductivity of the obtained liposomal particles were −0.429 ± 0.012 µmcm/Vs and 0.468 ± 0.005 mS/cm, respectively. The results indicate the existence of nanoparticles and a non-uniform system, while a negative zeta potential value is related to the organization of phospholipids. Since UV irradiation did not cause significant changes in all of the mentioned parameters of the fumitory extract-loaded liposomes, it can be employed as a sterilization step in the preparation of liposomes.
