Abstract:Java Plum’s (Syzygium cumini) seed contains flavonoids in the form of quercetin. Quercetin plays an essential role in stimulating insulin production from pancreatic beta cells. However, it could be easily degraded by gastric acid or the digestive system. Thus, in this research, a good delivery system for quercetin will be established, namely nanoparticles. The study objectives are determining the entrapment efficiency’s percentage of nanoparticle preparations from ethanol extracts of Java Plum’s seeds as well … Show more
