Encapsulation of L-ascorbic acid(AA) into BGsome was attempted to improve its stability. BGsome is a bio-compatible vesicular system prepared by dispersion of hydrated liquid crystalline phase formed through hydration of 1,3-butylene glycol(BG)-dissolved lecithin with an aqueous solution containing hydrophilic component. The characteristics of AA encapsulated BGsome, such as droplet size, surface charge, and solution appearance, was investigated. The concentration of AA solution had considerable effect on droplet size and surface charge of BGsome. Several tens nanometer droplet made by sonication treatment did not showed any change of size with storage time. Stability of AA was improved by encapsulation into BGsome, which was verified through DPPH test and HPLC assay.
