Curcumin Nanoformulations for Dermatological Applications: From Nutraceuticals to Nanocarriers

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
Nanotechnology‐based delivery platforms enhance the cutaneous administration of curcumin. Loading free curcumin into polymeric micelles, metal‐based nanoparticles, nanogels/hydrogels, liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, or nanoemulsions/nanocrystals helps address its low solubility, poor stability and limited skin permeation. As a result, these systems

Formulation of Gluten‐Free Biscuits Based on Tiger Nut, Dana, and Mixture of Avocado and Margarine: Nutritional Composition and Glycemic Index of Optimal Sample

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study aimed to develop a gluten‐free biscuit with a low glycemic index by completely replacing wheat flour with flours from three local plant foods (tiger nut, dana, and avocado). The methodology began with the production of tiger nut and dana flours and avocado paste followed by the mixing plan and obtention of 09 (nine) formulations. The optimal
