The Progress in Research for Development of Curcumin Preparations and Activity Evaluation
Curcumin is a natural polyphenol.It has been confirmed that curcumin has anti-oxidant,anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer and so on.However,due to its low bioavailability and poor solubility,its application is limited.In order to solve these problems,researchers at home and abroad have developed inclusion compounds,solid dispersions,polymer micelles,liposomes,nanoparticles,microsphere and other different curcumin preparations.This paper will review preparations of curcumin and activity evaluation.
