“…As the implementation of formulations with additional components can modify the physical characteristics of the resulting cubic phase, this event also has a non-negligible impact on the LLCs’ three-dimensional structures. There is a strong interest among researchers in the effects deriving from the incorporation of additives in LLC formulations, as this could involve changes in the rheological behavior of mesophases, favor the transition from one phase to another or even enable them to coexist [ 26 , 27 ].…”

Hydrogels have been extensively investigated to identify innovative formulations that can fulfill all the necessary purposes to improve local vaginal therapy through the mucosa. Herein, we propose in situ-forming lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) derived from a cheap and GRAS (generally recognized as safe) ingredient as an intravaginal delivery system. The system consists of a precursor solution loaded with sertaconazole nitrate as a model drug, which is able to easily swell in a stable three-dimensional structure by absorbing simulated vaginal fluid. Under polarized light microscopy the precursor solution and the formed phase of LLCs showed the typical textures belonging to anisotropic and an isotropic mesophases, respectively. A deep rheological investigation by Kinexus® Pro proved the stability and strength of the cubic phase, as well as its potential in mucoadhesion. In vitro degradation studies showed a slow matrix erosion, consistent with data obtained from lipophilic drug release studies in simulated vaginal fluid. Therefore, the suggested cubic phase based on lyotropic liquid crystals could represent a valid proposal as a vaginal drug delivery system due to its characteristics of resistance, adhesion and the possibility of providing a slow and controlled release of drugs directly at the administration site.

“…In addition, the samples are in a gel state and do not flow in the region of high SSE concentration; however, as the concentration of SSE decreases, the fluidity increases and changes from a gel to a sol state data not shown . Gohtani determined that adding SC to a polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate/water/EVO system had little effect on the phase behavior, but adding SC changed the phase behavior in the polyoxyethylene sorbitan monopalmitate or MOPS/water/EVO systems 27 . In our previous studies, even though the hydrophilic group and the hydrophobic group of the amphiphilic substance were different, it was common for the liquid crystal region to expand by adding Fig.…”

“…Surfactants as another inert ingredient are required to dissolve bio-oil in the aqueous phase to replace the petroleum-derived pesticide formulations. Polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid ester, such as Tween 20 or 80, is combined with oil as carrier together in the presence of water for pesticide formulation 12 .…”

The agrochemical business places a high priority on the development of ecologically friendly pesticides for sustainable agriculture. The main hurdles in developing new pesticides are identifying novel active ingredients and optimising the delivery system of a pesticide are the main challenges in developing new pesticides. Currently, it appears that the use of renewable resources, particularly plant oils as pyrolyzed bio-oil has the potential to replace the traditional petroleum-based solvents in liquid pesticide formulations. The palm kernel shellderived bio-oil contains high concentrations of oil esters compounds (methyl esters) which can effectively encapsulate or bind the pesticide's active ingredients in the material's matrix. These properties drive the selection of this materials to be utilised as carrier (inert ingredients) in the pesticide formulations. This study aims to investigate the viability of using bio-oil to substitute petroleum-based oil as carrier in bio-pesticide formulation against insect-pest such as Metisa plana bagworm. Prior to formulation, the ternary phase diagram was used to assess the compatibility between bio-oil and surfactants such as Tween 20 and Tween 80 as bio-pesticide ingredients. According to the compatibility results, the best formulation contains 20% surfactant. Based on these circumstances, the experiment was designed with an active ingredient extracted from neem seeds, azadirachtin. The results showed that the formulated bio-pesticide could repel 50% of the bagworm population, with a lethal concentration (LC50) of 22.1 g/ml. As a result, this study contributes to our knowledge of waste management and brings us closer to a zero-waste strategy for a cleaner environment.
