Zein nanoparticles stabilized by hydrophilic small molecule stabilizer matrine deliver curcumin effectively

Matrine (MAR), a quinolone alkaloid, was employed to augment the stability of zein nanoparticles. The incorporation of MAR into the hydrophobic shell of zein nanoparticles was primarily achieved through hydrogen bonding. Curcumin (CUR), a hydrophobic active substance, was encapsulated in the hydroph...
