Sonophoresis with Nanostructured Lipid Carrier Gel Containing Quercetin for Muscle Injury Treatment in Rats
SUMMARY Background. Quercetin has therapeutic potential in the recovery of musculoskeletal injuries, but orally, this polyphenol presents poor absorption because of its poor water solubility and structural instability. However, its penetration through the skin can be enhanced by quercetin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC-Q), even more, when associated with pulsed therapeutic ultrasound (PUT). Objective. To evaluate … Continued
