In this study, we developed stabilized astaxanthin (AX) nanoparticles (sNP/AX) to improve the physicochemical properties, oral bioavailability, and hepatoprotection of AX. A flash nanoprecipitation technique was used with a multi-inlet vortex mixer to prepare the sNP/AX. Vitamins E (VE) and C (VC) w...
