introductory One of the most frequent illnesses that cause skin damage is fungus. Antifungal medications, both topical and systemic, are part of treatment plans. Fungal agents applied topically are typically preferred due to the hazards associated with conventional systemic therapy; these risks include specific organic toxicity, the fact that drug-drug interaction is primarily dependent on the drug's ability to penetrate and permeate the skin, and the pressing need to develop new drug delivery systems that can cross the skin barrier (a structure resembling a brick and mortar store). One of the most popular systems for this use is the vesicular system.Two Because liposomes and niosomes, two conventional vesicular systems, cannot pierce deeply into the skin, other vesicles, including transfersomes and ethosomes, have been developed.and efficiently disperse medications via it.3,4 In addition to the development of effective delivery systems for the highly promising antifungal drugs now on the market, the sharp increase in the use of antimycotic drugs in recent years has accelerated the emergence of resistance strains. Novel antifungals are thus urgently needed for medicinal purposes. Terconazole (TCZ) is a recently developed, triazole-class medication with a broad spectrum of application that is principally used to treat vulvovaginal candidiasis. When compared to other imidazole antifungal medicines, it shows better mycological and therapeutic cure levels in the treatment of fungal infections. TCZ acts by preventing the fungal 14a-demethylase, which is dependent on cytochrome P-450. TCZ was encapsulated in polymeric mixed micelles, proniosomal gel, and bilosomes.9. The exclusive technology is called Novasome.As a result, sterol's composition is altered.Due to its low permeability properties, 5,6 TCZ has a limited therapeutic applicability. In order to overcome this issue, TCZ was encapsulated in polymeric mixed micelles, proniosomal gel, and bilosomes.9. The innovative and exclusive encapsulation technique known as "novasome technology" was created by IGI Laboratories NOVAVAX to address issues with efficacy and efficiency in current medication delivery systems. It is reasonable to infer that novasomes have improved liposomal or niosomal structure, which are normally composed of a combination of monoester of poly-oxyethylene fatty acid, cholesterol, and free fatty acid (FFA).10 Novasomes are multi-bilayered vesicles that can transport a large amount of active substances due to their limited size range and high capacity central core.Various vaccinations were combined into Nova; some of them have received approval.11, 12 As a novel possible nanosystem, TCZ was meant to be incorporated into novasomes in this manuscript. Furthermore, no research has been done on novasomes' superiority over niosomes in topical delivery. Therefore, utilising TCZ as a model medication, our goal in this work was to determine the great flexibility of novasomes in enhancing the skin penetration compared to niosomes. In order to achieve this goal, a full 24 factorial design with Design Expert®️ software was employed to formulate novasomes in order to determine the best formulation and investigate the effects of various formulation variables on the prepared novasomes' entrapment efficiency percent (EE%), particle size (PS), polydispersity index (PDI), and zeta potential (ZP).In order to gauge the flexibility of the vesicles, the deformabil-ity index (DI) of the optimal novasomes was also calculated and contrasted with the conventional niosomal formulation. Additionally, the inhibitory activity of TCZ against Candida albicans was ascertained by employing the XTT (2,3-bis-(2-methyloxy- 4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide) reduction assay for the optimal novasomes in comparison to TCZ suspension. Additionally, the optimal novasomes were tested for in vivo skin deposition in comparison to conventional niosomal formulation and TCZ solution. The safety of the best novasomes was verified by looking at histological changes in rat skin. Lastly, the best formulation was put to the test in a clinical setting against a placebo to see how effective it was against fungal infections in newborns with napkin candidiasis.
