Encapsulation of Cancer Therapeutic Agent Dacarbazine Using Nanostructured Lipid Carrier

¹Institute of Environment, Health, Risks and Futures, Cranfield University

The most commonly used method for nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC) synthesis involves oil-in-water emulsion, homogenization and solidification. This was modified here by applying high shear dispersion after solidification to achieve a NLC with desirable size, improved drug encapsulation and drug loading efficiency as a potential carrier for dacarbazine delivery.

¹Department of Offshore, Process and Energy Engineering, Cranfield University, ²School of Applied Chemical and Environmental Sciences, Sheridan College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning, ³School of Engineering, University of Guelph, ⁴Carbon Systems Engineering, Centre for Combustion, Carbon Capture and Storage, Cranfield University

A protocol for the parallel production of precipitated calcium carbonate and zeolitic material from blast furnace slag via mineral carbonation and alkaline hydrothermal conversion, respectively, is presented. The performance of the zeolitic material towards nickel adsorption is tested.
