A Study on Conscinium fenestratum and Chitosan Biopolymer Composite for Ayurvedic Drug Delivery

Abstract

This study delves into the synergisti c amalgamati on of Coscinium fenestratum, an Ayurvedic medicinal plant, and chitosan biopolymer. This results in the innovati ve Venivel Chitosan Composite, which has established a pioneering drug delivery system. Subsequently, the composite material, Venivel Chitosan Composite, was formulated by integrati ng Coscinium fenestratum extract and chitosan biopolymer. Structural characteristi cs of Chitosan biopolymer and Venivel Chitosan Composite were determined via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), off ering valuable insights into their morphological features. Furthermore, a comprehensive characterizati on of the composite was achieved through the analysis of X-ray diff racti on (XRD) patt erns, elucidati ng its crystalline structure. A meti culous examinati on of the in vitro drug release profi le revealed a predominant diff usion mechanism, indicati ng the potenti al suitability of this system for applicati ons in wound healing treatments. In conclusion, integrati ng Coscinium fenestratum with chitosan biopolymer presents a versati le composite with promising anti bacterial, anti oxidant, and anti - infl ammatory properti es, elevati ng its potenti al for targeted and controlled ayurvedic drug delivery applicati ons.
