Introduction: This study was conducted to increase the low solubility of cannabidiol (CBD), which therapeutic use is limited due to low solubility and bioavailability. Using the electrospray method, which enables the production of micro/nanoparticles in solid form by creating fine droplets under high voltage, the aim was to develop CBD-loaded, homogeneous, and controlled-release particulate systems (1).
Learning Objectives:
Understand the principles of the electrospray technique for the preparation of CBD-loaded micro/nanoparticles.
Describe the role of different polymeric carriers in particle formation and drug encapsulation.
Compare morphology and encapsulation efficiency of CBD particles with different polymer matrices.
