Development of pectin nanoparticles through mechanical homogenization for dissolution enhancement of itraconazole

A simple method to fabricate itraconazole (ITZ)-loaded pectin nanoparticles prepared from nanoemulsion templates is described in this study. Nanoemulsions containing ITZ were prepared by a mechanical homogenization using pectin as emulsifier. After freeze-drying, the morphology, crystallinity state,...
