Previous issue date: 2012-01-26 / One area of nanotechnology of great interest is the formation of nanoparticles (nanospheres and nanocapsules) because it allows the development of controlled release formulations, in other words, those with the ability to properly release the actives agents. In such products, the active ingredient protected is gradually released through appropriate stimulus. There is a special interest in the preparation of nanoparticles of biodegradable polymers, for example, polyesters such as poly-lactic acid and glycolic and its copolymers, such as acid poly(lactic-co-glycolic) (PLGA), considering its biocompatibility and biodegradation. In this context, this study has as objective to produce nanospheres from the PLGA biodegradable polymer containing menthol through the technique of multiple emulsion/solvent evaporation. The prepared PLGA / menthol micro and nanospheres, presented mostly average diameters between 217 and 13,103 nm, Tg 41 ?C and thermal stability up to 260 ?C. The presence of menthol in the micro and nanospheres was demonstrated by the characterization techniques used, as well as the physical presence of menthol aroma perceptiple to the smell. At last, was made a preliminary valuation of the efficiency of incorporation of aroma, showing to be effective, since the micro and nanospheres with a higher concentration of menthol in its formulation demonstrated from the techniques used (relation between the heights of the bands of menthol and PLGA in IR and through the higher mass loss relative to the menthol in the TGA), present approximately 60% more menthol incorporated into the polymer matrix of these micro and nanoparticles in relation to others / Uma das ?reas da nanotecnologia de grande interesse ? a da forma??o de nanopart?culas (nanoesferas e nanoc?psulas), pois permite o desenvolvimento de f?rmulas de libera??o controlada, ou seja, aquelas com a capacidade de liberar os agentes ativos adequadamente. Em tais produtos, o princ?pio ativo protegido ? liberado gradativamente por meio de est?mulos adequados. Existe um interesse especial na prepara??o de nanopart?culas de pol?meros biodegrad?veis, como por exemplo, os poli?steres como ?cido poli-l?ctico e o glic?lico, e seus copol?meros, como o ?cido poli(l?ctico-co-glic?lico) (PLGA), considerando sua biocompatibilidade e biodegrada??o. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo produzir nanoesferas a partir do pol?mero biodegrad?vel PLGA contendo mentol atrav?s da t?cnica de emuls?o m?ltipla/evapora??o do solvente. As micro e nanoesferas de PLGA/mentol preparadas apresentaram, na sua maioria, di?metros m?dios entre 217 e 13.103 nm, Tg 41 ?C e estabilidade t?rmica at? 260 ?C. A presen?a de mentol nas micro e nanoesferas foi evidenciada atrav?s das t?cnicas de caracteriza??o utilizadas, bem como, pela presen?a f?sica de aroma caracter?stico de mentol percept?vel ao olfato. Por ?ltimo, foi feita uma avalia??o preliminar da efici?ncia de incorpora??o do aroma, mostrando-se eficaz, uma vez que, as micro e nanoesferas com maior concentra??o de mentol em sua formula??o demonstraram a partir das t?cnicas utilizadas (rela??o entre as alturas das bandas do mentol e de PLGA no IV e atrav?s da maior perda de massa relativa ao mentol no TGA), apresentarem aproximadamente 60% mais mentol incorporado a matriz polim?rica destas micro e nanopart?culas em rela??o ?s demais.
