Abstract

The goal of this research was to formulate and test invitro the self-nano emulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) of poorly water-soluble herbal material. Linalool, an essential of Coriandrum sativum with anti-epileptic activity, was isolated from Coriandrum sativum by using Soxhlet extraction method followed by column chromatography and fractionates are concentrated under reduced pressure by using rotary flash evaporator. It is low water soluble material; unpredictable dissolution and low bioavailability make it very difficult to administer linalool orally.The captex-200 oil was exhibited maximum solubility of linalool. Thus, it was chosen as the oil phase, while Tween 80 and PEG-200 were chosen as surfactant and co-surfactant respectively for the preparation of linalool SNEDDS. For the determination of existence zone of nanoemulsion, pseudo ternary phase diagram was developed using the Prism Software by using water titration method. Self-nanoemulsion are evaluated for scanning electron microscopy (SEM), particle size analysis, polydispersity index, zeta potential and invitro drug release.The s9 formulation showed 97.72% cumulative release higher than other selected formulations(S4-S8). The S9 formulation showed promising result on droplet size, zeta potential, polydispersity index, invitro drug dissolution. It was concluded that SNEDDS formation from captex-200, tween 80, PEG-200, Smix (4:1), is a promising approach to enhancing substance solubility and the pace of dissolution.
