  1. aThe particle size measurement of the nanoformulations was performed for the aqueous solution of each material in deionized water through the DLS method at RT
  2. bThe zeta potential analysis was investigated for the aqueous solution of nanoformulations dispersed in deionized water, measuring by Zetasizer technique at RT. The statistical analysis using t-test at p < 0.05 shows the significant differences between nanoformulations for particle size (p-value was 0.017; *) and zeta potential analysis (p-value was 0.006; **)
