dc.abstract.enThe development of consumer-friendly nutraceutical dosage forms is highly important for greater acceptance. In this work, such dosage forms were prepared based on structured emulsions (emulgels), where the olive oil phase was filled within the pectin-based jelly candy. The emulgel-based candies were designed as bi-modal carriers, where oil-soluble curcumin and water-soluble riboflavin were incorporated as the model nutraceuticals. Initially, emulsions were prepared by homogenizing varied concentrations (10% to 30% (w/w)) of olive oil in a 5% (w/w) pectin solution that contained sucrose and citric acid. Herein, pectin acted as a structuring agent-cum-stabilizer. Physico–chemical properties of the developed formulations were thoroughly analyzed. These studies revealed that olive oil interferes with the formation of polymer networks of pectin and the crystallization properties of sugar in candies. This was confirmed by performing FTIR spectroscopy and DSC studies. In vitro disintegration studies showed an insignificant difference in the disintegration behavior of candies, although olive oil concentration was varied. Riboflavin and curcumin were then incorporated into the jelly candy formulations to analyze whether the developed formulations could deliver both hydrophilic and hydrophobic nutraceutical agents. We found that the developed jelly candy formulations were capable of delivering both types of nutraceutical agents. The outcome of the present study may open new directions for designing and developing oral nutraceutical dosage forms.
