Development and in vitro evaluation of chitosan nanoparticles encapsulating Phoenix dactylifera L. (Ajwah) seed extract with supporting in silico molecular docking analysis

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract This research describes the engineering of chitosan nanoparticles (CS NPs) via ionic gelation to encapsulate Ajwah seed extract (ASE), repurposing a plant waste product for its documented antioxidant and anticancer potential. Physicochemical analysis confirmed the formation of stable nanoparticles with hydrodynamic diameters between 152.3 and ...
