Brief Statement of research work

My research focuses on the development and optimization of advanced drug delivery systems to enhance the bioavailability, stability, and therapeutic efficacy of poorly soluble and conventional drugs. I specialize in lipid-based nanocarriers, self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS), polymeric films, and natural polymer-based delivery platforms. My current work involves the mechanistic investigation and characterization of curcumin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) incorporated with essential oils to improve therapeutic outcomes in inflammatory conditions such as pulpitis. Additionally, I am developing an essential oil-based SNEDDS formulation of sulfadiazine to enhance its oral bioavailability and pharmacological performance. I am also actively engaged in exploring starch-based and biopolymer-based drug delivery systems, focusing on their application in oral and mucosal delivery. My research integrates formulation development, physicochemical characterization, in vitro evaluation, and stability assessment to design safe, effective, and innovative pharmaceutical products.
