| Description | Ethyl oleate, a fatty acid ester produced through the condensation of oleic acid and ethanol, serves as the liquid lipid component in nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs). These NLCs represent a pioneering approach for the oral administration of trans-Ferulic acid (TFA), highlighting ethyl oleate's critical role in enabling effective drug delivery systems. |
