Sustained release formulations of citronella oil nanoemulsion using cavitational techniques
Abstract
Effect of physicochemical parameters on cavitation assisted synthesis of citronella oil emulsion. Improved stability of emulsion prepared with cavitation in comparison to conventional methods. Hydrodynamic cavitation showed higher cavitation yield in comparison to ultrasonication. Release of citronella oil emulsion increased at smaller droplet size.
