Sažetak

Background and purpose: Cerebral ischemia causes neuronal damage due to restricted blood flow and presents significant challenges for brain-targeted drug delivery because of the blood-brain barrier. The purpose of this study is to formulate and evaluate an intranasal oil-in-water nanoemulsion of carvacrol, a neuro­protective agent, for direct nose-to-brain delivery in treating cerebral ischemia. Experimental approach: Nano­emulsions were developed using high-pressure homogenization and optimized by adjusting surfactant mixture ratios and homogenization cycles. Characterization included droplet size (
