Curing Cancer: Delivery of Hydrophobic Drugs

By:
Betsy Strobel and Carissa Barney

Mentors:
Stephanie Dukovic and Rachel McKeena

Faculty:
Drs. Michelle Bothwell and Joe McGuire

Hydrophobic drugs are difficult to deliver in solution. Emulsions can be formed using surfactants that stabilixe in the interface between hydrophobic and hydrophilic components of the drug. This project evaluates the formation and the stability of such emulsions as well as release of the drug from the emulsion.
