Flow reactor for preparation of lipid nanoparticles via temperature variations
I. Lesov, D. Glushkova, D. Cholakova +4
Lipid nanoemulsions and nanosuspensions are used as flavor carriers and bubble stabilizers in soft drinks and foods, as well as delivery vehicles for lipophilic drugs in pharmaceut…
Rotator phases in hexadecane emulsion drops revealed by X-ray synchrotron techniques
Diana Cholakova, Desislava Glushkova, Zhulieta Valkova +4
Micrometer sized alkane-in-water emulsion drops, stabilized by appropriate long-chain surfactants, spontaneously break symmetry upon cooling and transform consecutively into series…
Cold-burst method for nanoparticle formation with natural triglyceride oils
Diana Cholakova, Desislava Glushkova, Slavka Tcholakova +1
Preparation of nanoemulsions of triglyceride oils in water usually requires high mechanical energy and sophisticated equipment. Recently, we showed that alpha-to-beta (viz. gel-to-…
Nanopore and nanoparticle formation with lipids, undergoing polymorphic phase transitions
Diana Cholakova, Desislava Glushkova, Slavka Tcholakova +1
We describe several unexpected phenomena, caused by a solid-solid phase transition (gel-to-crystal) typical for all main classes of lipid substances - phospholipids, triglycerides,…
