摘要
Tocotrienol is a subfamily of natural vitamin E with multiple biological activities, including antioxidants, antiproliferative, proapoptotic, antiangiogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Despite numerous biological activities, the application of tocotrienol is hampered by its poor solubility, resulting in low bioavailability, and in turn, limits its therapeutic effectivity. To address these limitations, the present study focuses on the development of tocotrienol nanoemulsion, followed by an in vitro anticancer evaluation of the formula. The tocotrienol nanoemulsion was prepared by a combination of high-speed homogenization with ultrasonication, using food-grade canola oil and Tween 80 as oil phases and surfactants, respectively. The formulated nanoemulsion observed an encapsulation efficiency of 90.26
