Avocatin B reduces droplet size of a MCT oil— polysorbate 80 based SEDDS. (A) SEDDs method of preparation. (B) Effect of avocatin B concentration on average hydrodynamic diameter (Z-average) of NeoBee—Tween 80 SEDDs over time. Inset: visual appearance of control (blank SEDDS) and avocatin B containing SEDDS on day 0. (C) Polydispersity index of SEDDS described in (B). Values are means ± SEM of three independent experiments. (D) Cryo-TEM images of control (blank SEDDS) and 20 mg/mL avocatin B containing SEDDs. Scale bar represents 100 nm.
