This invention relates to a nanoparticulate composition comprising lipid based nanostructures of 100-200 nm co-encapsulating nutrients selected from the group comprising iron as ferrous, ferric salts or elemental iron, iodine, folic acid, vitamins or micronutrients, incorporated within the matrix of a cosmetic and methods of making said nanoparticle composition.

Nanoparticle based cosmetic composition

A protein free surfactant composition comprising dipalmitoylphosphatidyl choline (DPPC) and eugenol having a ratio in the range of 10:5 to 4:2 with &#x3e;99% airway patency in the presence of albumin, for treating acid lung injury, adult respiratory distress syndrome and meconium aspiration syndrome.

The present technology provides a nanoparticulate in-situ gelling vitreous substitute, which is a liquid at room temperature to aid easy administration, such as e.g. through a small needle incision, and forms a gel within the eye, which is hydrophilic in nature, similar to the natural vitreous. The vitreous substitute formulation may include a water-soluble natural or synthetic polymer and a gelling-agent which are blended together in the presence of a cross linker, to form a gel having the properties of the vitreous humor. The process of cross linking and gelation may occur in-situ. This can be achieved by dispensing to the eye, different components of the vitreous substitute in liquid state, along with the cross linking agent.
