Lycopene-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier from carboxymethyl oil palm empty fruit bunch cellulose for topical administration

A novel lycopene loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) was prepared using carboxymethyl oil palm empty fruit bunch cellulose (CM- OPEFBC), carnauba wax and palm oil. Presence of wax and oil in the lipid mixture aided in obtaining small uniform spherical particle size in the range of 16–22 nm ha...
