Physicochemical characterization of stearoyl L-carnitine (SC)-modified nanoemulsions (SC-NEs) with varying SC modification ratios. Particle size distribution and TEM images of DEX NEs (A), DEX 5% SC-NEs (B), DEX 10% SC-NEs (C), DEX 20% SC-NEs (D), DEX 40% SC-NEs (E), DEX 80% SC-NEs (F) (scale bar in TEM images = 100 nm); DCS (G), FTIR (H), and in vitro drug release profiles (I) of DEX NEs modified with different ratios of SC (n = 3)
