An Overview on Essential oil Loaded Nanoparticle Approach for Novel Drug Delivery

Bioactive components are found in essential oils. which show antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral properties etc the volatile secondary metabolites known as essential oils (EOs) are produced by plants and give them their distinct flavor, aroma, or both. skin is affected by a number of conditions, including dryness, aging, eczema, acne, pimples, dullness, wrinkles, and unsightly patches essential oils are used to treat these conditions, there are different types of oil like tea tree, lemongrass, clove, lavender, thyme, and cinnamon etc. which work against various strains of bacteria and fungi. essential oil loaded Nanoparticles are particles that are 100 nm or smaller. The three kinds of nanoparticles—organic, inorganic, and carbon-based—are often distinguished by their composition, nanoparticles are having various advantages and disadvantages, Essential oil loaded nanoparticles are synthesis by various methods High-speed stirring, high-pressure homogenization, and ultra-sonication, and co-precipitation The Stober Antibiotics method, nanoprecipitation, mini-emulsion polymerization, ionic gelation, and spray drying. Essential oil loaded nanoparticles are having various application in various fields. Essential oil loaded nanoparticles are characterized by zeta potential, UV absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, FTIR, Microscopic techniques, TEM, Physicochemical, Electronic and optical, Magnetic, Mechanical, and Thermal properties and etc., A tremendous amount of work is going on in using nanoparticles as carrier systems for various actives such as essential oils for its obvious advantages.
