본 연구는 유용성 물질 포집에 효과적인 solid lipid nanoparticle(SLN)을 이용하여 수용성물질인 LA-PEG을 새로운 제조방법에 응용하여 실험하였다. 지질로 사용된 오일은 coconut oil, macadamia oil, 그리고 jojoba oil 3가지로 이들의 특징은 생분해성이 강하다. 외부유화제로는 Tween 20, Tween 60을 이용하여 T-SLN을 제조하였으며, SLN의 입자 분포를 비교 분석한 결과 coconut oil을 지질로 하여 사용한 것이 크기가 가장 작았으며 사용한 계면활성제의 양에 따라 입자크기와 분포형태가 달라졌다. 1%의 Tween 60과 macadamia oil을 이용한 베이스가 입자크기가 가장 컸다. 방출관찰결과 coconut oil을 지질로 한 2%의 Tween 20의 베이스가 가장 늦게 방출되었고, 가장 빠른 방출한 것은 Tween 60 2% 베이스였다.
This study is on encapsulation of a new whitening agent, LA-PEG using solid lipid nanoparticle(SLN) method, one of nanoparticle preparation method. Classical method has high capsulation efficiency for hydrophobic compounds but has demerit of low capsulation efficiency($2{sim}3%$) for hydrophilic compounds. Purpose of this study is preparation of SLN that has higher skin penetration effect compared with general liposome, and also has higher encapsulation efficiency of hydrophilic compounds. For SLN preparation, coconut oil, macadamia oil, and jojoba oil were used. As a result, SLN preparation using coconut oil(include LA-PEG) has the most high encapsulation efficiency and also has the smallest average particle size(270 nm). SLN prepared with macadamia oil and 1% of Tween 60 has the largest particle size. Base made with coconut oil and 2% of Tween 60 showed the fastest release and base made with macadamia oil and 2% of Tween 20 showed the latest release.
