  • Formulation and evaluation of taste-masked curcumin nanoparticles for improved antioxidant and anticancer efficacy
    Mulham Alfatama, Zalilawati Mat Rashid, Omar A. Harasstani, Hamzeh Alkhatib, Asif Nawaz, Hazem Choukaife
    Scientific Reports, 2025
    Curcumin, a natural polyphenolic compound derived from turmeric, is well-documented for its therapeutic properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities. However, its clinical and nutraceutical applications are limited by its poor aqueous solubility, low oral bioavailability, and unpleasant taste. This study aimed to encapsulate curcumin in alginate-based nanoparticles, with and without chitosan coating, to improve its palatability while preserving its therapeutic efficacy. Two optimized formulations uncoated curcumin-loaded alginate nanoparticles (CANPs) and chitosan-coated nanoparticles (CANPs-Cs) were developed, exhibiting average particle sizes of 199.51 ± 9.40 nm and 312.90 ± 10.30 nm, polydispersity indices of 0.26 ± 0.090 and 0.27 ± 0.09, zeta potentials of - 23.10 ± 1.10 mV and + 28.50 ± 1.00 mV, encapsulation efficiencies of 93.6 ± 3.5% and 90.8 ± 0.1%, and drug loading of 1.32 ± 0.15% and 1.25 ± 0.19%, respectively. FTIR analysis confirmed the compatibility and successful encapsulation of curcumin within the nanoparticle matrix. The chitosan-coated formulation (CANPs-Cs) exhibited enhanced antioxidant activity and superior taste-masking ability, as evidenced by a significant reduction (~ 50%) in curcumin release within artificial saliva compared to CANPs. Additionally, both formulations demonstrated potent cytotoxic effects against the CT26 colon cancer cell line, with CANPs-Cs maintaining therapeutic efficacy while offering improved sensory attributes. These findings suggest that CANPs-Cs is a promising delivery system for curcumin, offering enhanced bioactivity and palatability suitable for food and pharmaceutical applications.

    Electrospraying and Electrospinning in Drug Delivery Principles Methods and Applications, 2025
    The advancement of material fabrication techniques, particularly three-dimensional (3D) printing and electrospinning, has significantly contributed to biomedicine by enabling the precise design and production of scaffolds, grafts, and membranes with tailored properties essential for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Initially developed as a prototyping tool, 3D printing has evolved into a versatile manufacturing platform capable of producing complex 3D structures with interconnected pore networks that facilitate the transport of proteins, oxygen, and nutrients. However, achieving high-resolution filaments and pore sizes compatible with cellular dimensions remains a challenge, as these factors are crucial for efficient cell seeding and tissue formation. In contrast, electrospinning excels in generating nanoscale fibers that closely resemble the native extracellular matrix (ECM), providing a favorable environment for cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Despite its advantages, electrospun fibers often exhibit inadequate mechanical strength, and constructing 3D structures using this method remains challenging. By integrating 3D printing with electrospinning, researchers have developed hybrid materials that combine the structural control of 3D printing with the biomimetic properties of electrospun fibers, resulting in highly porous, interconnected structures that enhance cellular activities. These integrated approaches have been successfully applied in tissue engineering, drug delivery, flexible electronics, and filtration systems. This chapter examines recent advancements in combining 3D printing and electrospinning, focusing on fabrication methods, applications, and material properties. Additionally, it discusses strategies for developing multifunctional composite structures and explores current challenges and future research directions. The integration of electrospinning with techniques such as electrospraying, gas foaming, and additive manufacturing demonstrates the potential of these hybrid approaches to revolutionize biomedical applications by enabling the fabrication of 3D scaffolds with multi-scale hierarchical architectures.

  • Preparation Methods Used in Electrospinning and Electrospraying
    Hazem Choukaife, Abd Almonem Doolaanea, Saeid Mezail Mawazi, Mulham Alfatama
    Electrospraying and Electrospinning in Drug Delivery Principles Methods and Applications, 2025
    Electrospraying and electrospinning are electrohydrodynamic (EHD) techniques that utilize an applied electric field to convert polymer solutions into micro- or nanostructured materials. These approaches are extensively employed in the fabrication of fibers and particles with customizable properties, offering benefits such as high encapsulation efficiency, controlled release mechanisms, and compatibility with heat-sensitive compounds. The production of electrospun fibers and electrosprayed particles necessitates a systematic methodology, involving the careful selection of materials, optimization of processing parameters, and regulation of environmental conditions. A conventional electrospinning setup comprises a high-voltage power supply, a syringe pump containing the polymer solution, and a grounded collector. As the polymer solution is dispensed through a needle at a controlled flow rate, the applied voltage induces the formation of a charged jet. This jet undergoes elongation, solvent evaporation, and subsequent solidification, resulting in continuous fiber formation. The morphology and properties of the fibers are governed by critical parameters, including polymer concentration, flow rate, applied voltage, and the tip-to-collector distance. Conversely, electrospraying operates at lower polymer concentrations, causing jet fragmentation into fine droplets that dry to yield micro- or nanoparticles. The characteristics of the resulting particles are influenced by factors such as solvent properties, surface tension, and electric field strength. Recent advancements in EHD techniques, including co-axial electrospinning, emulsion electrospraying, and melt electrospinning, have significantly enhanced their capabilities. These innovations facilitate precise control over structural and compositional attributes, broadening their applications in drug delivery, food technology, and biomedical engineering. This chapter presents a comprehensive examination of electrospinning and electrospraying methodologies, emphasizing their potential in the development of advanced functional materials.

    Electrospraying and electrospinning are cutting-edge nanofabrication techniques that enable the controlled production of nanoparticles and nanofibers with tailored physicochemical properties. These technologies have gained widespread attention in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and materials science, particularly for their applications in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and advanced biomedical devices. The ability of electrospraying and electrospinning to generate nanostructures with high surface area, tunable porosity, and controlled release profiles has positioned them as promising tools for next-generation medical innovations. Despite their advantages, the scalability of these techniques remains a critical challenge, limiting their transition from laboratory-scale research to industrial manufacturing. Key obstacles include low process throughput, instability of the electrohydrodynamic jet, and variations in product uniformity. To address these limitations, researchers have explored novel scale-up strategies, including multi-nozzle and nozzleless configurations, hybrid processing methods, and computational modeling to optimize process stability. Furthermore, the development of solvent-free techniques, such as melt electrospinning and alternating current-driven processes, has expanded the environmental and industrial viability of these approaches. This book chapter provides an in-depth analysis of the challenges and advancements associated with scaling up electrospraying and electrospinning for high-throughput production. It explores the impact of process modifications on nanomaterial properties, discusses the commercialization of electrospraying- and electrospinning-based pharmaceutical products, and highlights regulatory, economic, and environmental considerations. By addressing these critical factors, electrospraying and electrospinning hold the potential to revolutionize nanotechnology applications, paving the way for groundbreaking developments in drug delivery, biomedical engineering, and beyond.

    Mulham Alfatama, Hazem Choukaife, Okba Al Rahal, Nur Zahirah Mohamad Zin
    Pharmaceutics, 2024
    Background/Objectives: Thymoquinone (TQ) exhibits diverse biological activities, but its poor solubility and bioavailability limit its cancer efficacy, requiring innovative solutions. This study explores the development of an oral delivery system targeting colon cancer based on TQ pectin beads (TQ-PBs) produced through an adjustable electrospray technique. This study hypothesised that adjusting bead diameter through the electrospray technique enables precise control over water absorption and erosion rates, thereby achieving a controlled release profile for encapsulated TQ, which enhances targeted delivery to the colon. Methods: TQ-PBs were synthesised and optimised using an electrospray technique based on the ionic gelation method. The prepared beads were characterised based on particle size, sphericity, encapsulation efficiency (EE), water uptake, erosion, surface morphology, molecular interactions, and texture. The cumulative TQ release studies, an accelerated stability test, and cytotoxicity evaluation against the colon cancer HT-29 cell line were also assessed. Results: The optimised TQ-PB formulation demonstrated an average bead size of 2.05 ± 0.14 mm, a sphericity of 0.96 ± 0.05, and an EE of 90.32 ± 1.04%. The water uptake was 287.55 ± 10.14% in simulated gastric fluid (SGF), 462.15 ± 12.73% in simulated intestinal fluid (SIF), and 772.41 ± 13.03% in simulated colonic fluid (SCF), with an erosion rate of 45.23 ± 5.22%. TQ release was minimal in SGF (8.13 ± 1.94% after 2 h), controlled in SIF (29.35 ± 3.65% after 4 h), and accelerated in SCF (94.43 ± 2.4% after 3 h). Stability studies over one month showed a size reduction of 17.50% and a 6.59% decrease in TQ content. Cytotoxicity assessments revealed significant anticancer activity of TQ-PB, with an IC50 of 80.59 ± 2.2 μg/mL. Conclusions: These findings underscore the potential of TQ-PB as an effective oral drug delivery system for targeted colorectal cancer therapy.
