Abstract:

The buckwheat flavone nanoemulsion system was constructed with amino acid surfactant sodium lauroyl sarcosinate and PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil as the composit emulsifiers, 1,2-propylene glycol as co-emulsifier and castor oil as oil phase, and its bacteriostatic activity was evaluated. The results showed that the nanoemulsion was transparent and clear in appearance, with uniform particle size distribution. The PDI, surface tension and pH value all showed that the nanoemulsion system was good. In vitro release performance showed that the cumulative release of nanoemulsion was significantly better than that of control suspension within 24 h. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of nanoemulsion and suspension to Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli showed that the bacteriostatic activity of nanoemulsion was significantly higher than that of suspension. The bacteriostatic rates of nanoemulsion against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were 92.1%±1.93% and 93.2%±1.26%, respectively, and those of the suspension of the same concentration against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were 42.0%±1.58% and 45.6%±2.33%, respectively.

Key words: amino acid surfactant, nanoemulsion, in vitro release, bacteriostatic properties
