Liposome-chitosan hydrogel bead delivery system for the encapsulation of linseed oil and quercetin: Preparation and in vitro characterization studies

This study concentrates on developing linseed oil and quercetin co-loaded liposomes-chitosan hydrogel beads to enhance their stability and solubility. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis revealed that the constructed hydrogel beads had three-dimensional network structure and liposomes were entrapped evenly within polymer network. X-ray diffraction (XRD) study illustrated that quercetin was in an amorphous or dissolved form in hydrogel...
