Ranging from 40 to 70%, the molecular breakthrough NCE possess exceptionally water‐insoluble characteristics and therefore compelling the formulation developers to look into or to go for any suitable formulation that may fit for the selected NCE rather than simply trying to make aqueous/nonaqueous‐based solution‐type formulation. One of the amazing drug delivery carrier systems that suit for such NCE is oil‐in‐water (o/w)‐type nanosized emulsions. The o/w nanosized emulsions possess the success stories for taking the active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) into desirable target organs of human body, particularly in terms of non‐parenteral (especially ocular) and parenteral routes. The in‐or‐new‐born internal structures observed in the dispersed oil droplets of o/w nanosized emulsions are the welcome additions in emulsion technology wherein two or three API molecules can easily be accommodated simultaneously during the emulsification time itself. Such recent observations of in‐or‐new‐born internal structures in the o/w nanosized emulsions include “Cerberus and Janus” and corresponding names given to the emulsions are Cerberus emulsions and Janus emulsions. These types of new emulsions, although at their rudimentary stage of development, are capable of escalating the o/w nanosized emulsion's utility in multiple directions viz., drug solubility enhancers, dual/triple drug‐loading vehicle, imaging and theragnostic purposes, etc.
This book provides very comprehensively the details of o/w nanosized emulsions at the grass‐root level so that the formulation scientist can understand how to select the proper excipients such as emulsifier combination, oil or oil combination, and other ingredients to systematically optimize the emulsion formula matching with ICH guidelines Q8(R2), Q9, and Q10, to characterize the emulsions and perform safety assessment, to monitor the biofate of nanosized emulsions, etc. All these abovesaid issues are detailed in this book with few case studies wherever possible.
Chapter 1 starts with terminology confusion prevailing about emulsion in medical and pharmaceutical fields. The purpose of this section is to clarify the terminology needed to indicate authentically this drug delivery/targeting system and finally gives reasons for judicious selection of the term “nanosized emulsion.” It will also provide generations of oil‐in‐water nanosized emulsions so far developed with short justification followed by a brief description regarding the purpose and contents of the book.
Chapter 2 introduces the quality‐by‐design (QbD) approach applied onto the emulsion optimization during the preformulation studies. The effect of amount of NCE or lipophilic drug, quantity of excipients (oils, emulsifiers, and other excipients) onto the drug incorporation patterns, final particle size distribution of dispersed oil droplets of the emulsion, stability of final emulsion over different temperature conditions, etc., are the subject of interest discussed in this chapter.
Chapter 3 provides an overview of how nanosized emulsions are serially or systematically characterized to meet the requirements against physical, chemical, biological, and safety points of view. Safety evaluations using animal or human volunteers and cell‐culture models are separately discussed in terms of the requirements needed by the regulatory agencies for allowing the emulsions to undergo clinical trials and then, commercial usage.
Chapter 4 shows how changes in terms of formulation excipients were being constantly made on the nanosized emulsions over the last few decades. To understand better this changeover process, the o/w nanosized emulsions are classified based on the generations with decade‐wise gap.
Chapter 5 arranges the various issues relevant to the o/w nanosized emulsions to implicate in parenteral and ocular drug delivering systems. Understanding the mechanisms of interactions between emulsion droplets and plasma protein components helps the formulation developers to design long‐circulating stealth emulsions for parenteral drug delivery and drug targeting purposes. Similar attention is also being given to the consequences of nanosized emulsions following ocular topical instillation or intraocular injection. The published reports in conjunction with these points are covered thoroughly in this chapter.
Chapter 6 starts with a narrative on how the emulsion surfaces can possibly be decorated with different functional molecules for the purpose of extracting a multifunctional activity in a single drug delivery and drug targeting system. Various medical applications of emulsions achieved/obtained through different administration routes are discussed in detail in this chapter.
Chapter 7 intends to provide an overview of some selected and miscellaneous uses of nanosized emulsions to interface with the recent application.
Chapter 8 describes the various steps ranging from laboratory level manufacturing together with safety aspects evaluation in animal and human eyes to industrial scaleup and then successful commercialization of cyclosporin A‐loaded nanosized emulsions. Other case study included in this chapter is fish oil‐based emulsions.
With these collective information, this book serves as a guide for emulsion formulation developers working in academic environment and at the industrial level.

1.1. INTRODUCTION
Inadequacy is the term that influences in every corner of modern scientific world. Starting from clothes, food, water, and shelter for covering the basic needs of living to affordable medicines for managing any ailments, the inadequacy plays major roles to judge the standard living of every country in the world. In the present scenario of democratic countries like India, USA, etc., the political party which acquires the adequate number of parliamentary members either elected by highest number of people votes in the constituency or after election shuffling with opposite party, is able to form the government for ruling the country another 3 or 5 years. Here too the adequacy means a lot to form the government and СКАЧАТЬ
