Investigation on the Linear and Nonlinear Properties of Morin in Presence of Reverse Micelle and Different Oil Content in Reverse Micelle

Versatility of Reverse Micelles: From Biomimetic Models to Nano (Bio)Sensor Design

“…Encapsulation of morin, a natural bioflavonoid compound, into water-in-oil reverse micelles was performed by Rahdar et al, investigating the photophysical properties of morin at different concentrations within AOT reverse micelles prepared in a water-indecane microemulsion system [280]. Morin is a flavonoid found in almond, fig, Indian guava, and other Moraceae family plants, used as food and traditional herbal medicine, showing multiple biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, antifungal, anticancer (breast, lung, and colon) and antibiotic properties [281][282][283][284].…”

“…The authors also investigated the optical properties (linear and nonlinear) of morin within water nanodroplets by modifying its concentration at a constant molar ratio of water/AOT/decane [280]. The linear and nonlinear properties of morin were analyzed, indicating a lower stabilization of morin in the microenvironment and the formation of Hbonds in a nano confinement with different structures.…”

“…The linear and nonlinear properties of morin were analyzed, indicating a lower stabilization of morin in the microenvironment and the formation of Hbonds in a nano confinement with different structures. The authors demonstrated that an increase in Morin nanodroplet concentration led to an increase in aggregation, as well as an increase in the temperature of the environment [280].…”
