ABSTRACT
Kappa-carrageenan is one form of necessary hydrocolloid.
Hydrocolloids are macromolecular materials, which swell upon absorption of
water; in some cases, forming a stiff gel in the
presence of additives. This property is very important to suspend nanocarriers
into gel network, which provide them long time stability at a varying
temperature range. In this work, we prepared microemulsion and trapped these particles
inside the kappa-carrageenan gel network. The microemulsion was composed of
sodium N-lauroylsarcosinate hydrate (SNLS), oleic acid and deionized
water. The purpose of this study was to immobilize them into the gel network,
giving longer shelf life at a range of temperatures for oral drug delivery.
Morphological properties were investigated by transmission electron microscope
(TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS)
and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. The TEM results
showed that microemulsions are trapped in the gel network, and the diameter of
the microemulsions are below 100 nm, which is comparable with the DLS results.
The important functional groups of kappa carrageenan and microemulsion were shown
from the FTIR result of the complex microemulsion gel. These
results confirmed the interaction between SNLS based
microemulsion and kappa-carrageenan gel.

ABSTRAK
Kappa-carrageenan adalah sejenis hidrokoloid. Hidrokoloid merupakan bahan makromolekul yang
mengembang apabila menyerap air; dalam kes tertentu boleh membentuk gel yang
tegar dengan penambahan bahan aditif. Sifat ini sangat
penting bagi mengapungkan nanopembawa ke dalam rangkaian gel dan memberikan
kestabilan jangka panjang pada julat suhu yang luas. Dalam kajian ini,
kami menyediakan mikroemulsi yang diperangkap ke dalam rangkaian gel kappa-carrageenan. Mikroemulsi mempunyai komposisi daripada sodium
–N-lauroylsarcosinat hidrat (SNLS), asid oleik dan air
nyahion. Tujuan kajian ini adalah untuk memegunkan
mikroemulsi ke dalam rangkaian gel bagi memberikan masa simpan yang lama pada
julat suhu penghantaran dadah secara oral. Sifat
morfologi telah ditentukan dengan menggunakan mikroskop elektron transmisi (TEM),
serakan cahaya dinamik (DLS) dan spektrum inframerah
penjelmaan Fourier (FTIR). Hasil TEM menunjukkan
bahawa mikroemulsi terperangkap dalam rangkaian gel dengan diameter mikroemulsi
kurang daripada 100 nm tekal dengan ukuran DLS.
Kumpulan berfungsi utama kappa-carrageenan dan mikroemulsi juga dikenal
pasti melalui pencirian spektroskopi-FTIR dalam kompleks gel
mikroemulsi. Hasil kajian membuktikan bahawa interaksi yang
kuat wujud antara mikroemulsi berdasarkan SNLS dan kappa-carrageenan gel.
