Nanoemulsions are finely dispersed emulsions with droplet sizes typically in the range of 20-200 nanometers. Due to their small size, they offer unique advantages such as enhanced bioavailability, improved solubility of hydrophobic drugs, and increased stability of active ingredients. In the pharmaceutical industry, nanoemulsions are revolutionizing drug delivery systems, enabling more effective and targeted treatments with reduced side effects. In the food and personal care industries, nanoemulsions are being used to create products with better texture, longer shelf life, and improved sensory properties. For instance, nanoemulsions can enhance the delivery of nutrients in functional foods and improve the absorption of active ingredients in skincare products. This program will cover the fundamentals of nanoemulsions, their formulation techniques, characterization methods, and various applications across the FMCG sector.
