Lavandula x intermedia essential oil and hydrolate: Evaluation of chemical composition and antibacterial activity before and after formulation in nanoemulsion

In this work, nanotechnology was applied to the development of nanoformulations of essential oil (EO) and hydrolate from Lavandula x intermedia the formulations were appropriately designed to enhance properties and effectiveness of EO and hydrolate in order to widen their application in pharmaceutical, cosmetics or food fields. In particular, nanoemulsions were investigated to evaluate the impact of the formulation process on the chemical...
