Synthesis of ursolic acid nanoparticles

The synthesis of ursolic acid nanoparticles includes dissolving ursolic acid powder in methanol, boiling water for five minutes, and adding the methanol solution to the boiled water dropwise at a flow rate of 0.1-0.3 ml/min under ultrasonic conditions. After sonication for 20 minutes, the contents a...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The synthesis of ursolic acid nanoparticles includes dissolving ursolic acid powder in methanol, boiling water for five minutes, and adding the methanol solution to the boiled water dropwise at a flow rate of 0.1-0.3 ml/min under ultrasonic conditions. After sonication for 20 minutes, the contents are stirred for about 15 minutes, and then dried. Particle size distribution studies and TEM micrographs confirm the resulting product comprises nanoparticles. In vitro testing confirms the ursolic acid nanoparticles exhibit greater anticancer activity than conventional-size particles, and that the nanoparticles exhibit antimicrobial effect against gram positive and gram negative bacteria, as well as fungi.
