Abstract Solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructure lipid carriers were used to entrap curcumin and broaden confined knowledge of application of nanocarriers as the functional ingredients in food sectors. The effect of lipids ratio (GDS /GMS), kind of nanocarrier (SLN and NLC) and curcumin concentration (0, 0.25 and 0. 5 % (w / w) of emulsion) on the qualitative characteristics of nanocarrier were evaluated. Based on the results the massive physical structure of Curcumin and also increases the viscosity of the material dispersed phase in the presence of active, loading Curcumin in the developed nanocarrier led to significant (p<0.05) increase in nanoparticles size. DSC analyses showed that the crystalline states of produced nanocarriers were less ordered than pure materials and indicated that the curcumin was well incorporated in lipid matrices. However, our pretest showed that concentration of 5% Glycerol distearate and 0.25% Curcumin was the optimum for the production of Solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructure lipid carriers.
