ABSTRACT

Design and expansion of herbal nanoparticles has become a frontier research in the Nano formulation arena. Curcumin is the main bioactive component controlled in Curcuma longa, largely employed in traditional medicine. Curcumin is the main slope of ?Turmeric? a famous Indian spice and food additive. The marvellous nutritional and medicinal effects of curcumin finished it a decent alternative to some conventional drugs and food flavouring or colouring materials. Recently, beneficial properties, useful for prevention and treatment of several disorders, have been exposed for this compound. Although curcumin has revealed therapeutic efficacy against many human ailments, one of the major problems with curcumin is its poor bioavailability, which seem to primarily due to poor absorption, rapid metabolism, and rapid systematic removal. Therefore, introduction of the nanotechnology offers a solution towards amplified bioavailability of curcumin. In this review, a lot methods of preparation of curcumin nanoparticles and its applications are briefly deliberated.
