Abstract:

In order to protect the physiological activity of resveratrol, resveratrol-hordein nanoparticles were self-assembled by liquid-liquid dispersion method. The mean diameter of the nanoparticles[(135.0±2.5) nm] was measured with dynamic light scattering method, with encapsulation efficiency of resveratrol(90.4%) and drug loading(18.8%) were obtained by ultraviolet spectrophotometry method. Scanning electron microscope(SEM) showed that the morphology of nanoparticles was smooth and spherical. The effect of composite nanoparticles carrier type on the light stability of resvertrol was investigated. The results showed that the stability of resveratrol in nanoparticles was improved by 26% compared with that of free resveratrol after ultraviolet irradiation for 18 h. Resveratrol release behavior was studied in the simulated gastro-intestinal tract. The data revealed that 35% resveratrol was released from resveratrol-hordein nanoparticles in simulated gastric fluid at the first 2 h, and then released slowly, until 56% resveratrol was released after 6 h. While in the simulated intestinal fluid, 42% resveratrol was released in the first 2 h, and then steadily released from nanoparticles according to zero-order release kinetics during the first 4 h. After 6 h, 88% resveratrol was released. The antioxidant capability of free resvertrol and composite nanoparticles was studied. 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical(DPPH) experiment results showed that resvertrol in composite nanoparticles had a little more scavenging effect on DPPH free radicals(IC50=0.4182 mmol/L) compared with free resvertrol(IC50=0.4378 mmol/L). A HepG2 cellular antioxidant activity(CAA) assay further demonstrated the above results.
