PG - 29577-29584 LID - 10.1021/acsomega.0c04609 [doi] AB - This study details the preparation and application of supramolecular host-guest inclusion complexes entrapping biomineralized microspheres for long-term storage and their pH-responsive behavior. The microspheres were assembled using a CaCO(3) synthesis process coupled with cyclodextrin-tetrahydrocurcumin (CD-THC) inclusion complexes, forming fine-textured and mechanically stable hybrid materials. The products were successfully characterized using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and particle size analysis (PSA). Various parameters such as the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, single point total pore volume, and pore size via adsorption/desorption analysis were also determined. The obtained THC-entrapped hybrid microspheres contained as high as 20 wt % THC loading and were very stable, preserving 90% of the initial concentration over four weeks of storage at different temperatures, largely limiting THC leaching and indicating high stability in a physiological environment. In addition, the pH-responsive release of THC from the hybrid microspheres was observed, showing potential use for application to weakly acidic skin surfaces. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of antiaging cosmetic formulation technology using biomineralization based on the co-synthesis of CaCO(3) and CD-THC complexes.
