D<strong>and</strong>ruffaffects the aesthetic value <strong>and</strong> causes theitching <strong>and</strong> keratinocytes play major role inthe expressions <strong>and</strong> the generation <strong>of</strong>immunological reaction during d<strong>and</strong>ruffformation [2, 3]. The severity <strong>of</strong> d<strong>and</strong>ruffmay fluctuate with season as a <strong>of</strong>ten worsenin winter [4].D<strong>and</strong>ruff is common scalp condition thatproducing the irritating white flakes <strong>and</strong>itchy scalp. Excessive drying <strong>of</strong> skin <strong>and</strong>over-activity <strong>of</strong> oil gl<strong>and</strong> known asseborrhea [4]. D<strong>and</strong>ruff is a visibledesquamation <strong>of</strong> scalp is the mildestmanifestation <strong>of</strong> seborrheic dermatitis <strong>and</strong>caused by P. ovale combine with multipleMalassezia fungus was identified by theFrench scientist Louis-Charles Malassez inhost factor .It is commonly aggravated bychanges in the humidity, trauma(scratching), season <strong>and</strong> the emotionalstress [5]. D<strong>and</strong>ruff is a d<strong>and</strong>er <strong>and</strong>represents nothing more than physiologicalscaling. Seborrhoeic dermatitis is obviouslymore inflammatory in nature extendingoutside the limit <strong>of</strong> scalp surface [6]. Thescales are dry, white or greyish <strong>and</strong> appearas small patches specially at the top <strong>of</strong> thehairs. D<strong>and</strong>ruff is a special case whereunusually large amount <strong>of</strong> flaking occursthis causes the redness <strong>and</strong> irritation <strong>of</strong> thescalp. The three factors required for thed<strong>and</strong>ruff formation:a. NATURAL SEBACEOUSb. MELASSEZIA FUNGIc. INDIVIDUAL SENSITIVITYMalassezia Infections:the late 19th century.

The lipid core isstabilized by surfactants (emulsifiers) .SLNsare composed <strong>of</strong> physiological <strong>and</strong>compatible lipids with a high melting pointas the solid core, which is coated by nontoxic amphiphilic surfactants as the outershell. The nanoparticles are in thesubmicron size range (50-1000 nm) <strong>and</strong> inthe solid state at both body <strong>and</strong> roomtemperatures. SLNs <strong>of</strong>fer unique propertiessuch as small size, large surface area, highdrug loading, the interaction <strong>of</strong> phases atthe interfaces, <strong>and</strong> are attractive for theirpotential to improve performance <strong>of</strong>pharmaceuticals, neutraceuticals <strong>and</strong> othermaterial [9].Aims <strong>of</strong> solid lipid nanoparticles [10, 11]a. Possibility <strong>of</strong> controlled drug releaseb. Increased drug stability.c. High drug pay loadd. No bio-toxicity <strong>of</strong> the carrier.e. Avoidance <strong>of</strong> organic solvents.f. Incorporation <strong>of</strong> liphophilic <strong>and</strong>hydrophilic drugs.<strong>Shampoo</strong>:<strong>Shampoo</strong>s are used not only for cleansingpurpose but also for imparting gloss to hair<strong>and</strong> to maintain their manageability <strong>and</strong>oiliness for hairs. <strong>Shampoo</strong> is generallyused to remove dirt on hair. The dirt isremoved by detergents. <strong>Shampoo</strong>s havesome side effect like drying, irritation oneyes. The drying effect <strong>of</strong> shampoo leavesthe hair too dry <strong>and</strong> it is not h<strong>and</strong>ling bycomb. So it is necessary for conditioning <strong>of</strong>the hair .So these things should be avoidedby shampoo [12, 13].Anti-D<strong>and</strong>ruff <strong>Shampoo</strong>:In this type <strong>of</strong> shampoo it contains somespecific function along with the cleansingaction. <strong>Shampoo</strong> usually containantid<strong>and</strong>ruff agent, other medicinal agentlike vitamins, amino acid, plant extract,antibacterial agent etc [13].MATERIALS AND METHODSGarlic was collected from local market.

Spreadibility testing was developed toaccess the spreading properties <strong>of</strong> theLiquids, cosmetics, oils.2. This test method was developed to studythe amount <strong>of</strong> spread <strong>of</strong> a sample.Procedure:1. Put a new sheet <strong>of</strong> aluminium foil on tothe bench.2 .Choose a filter paper type (p5, p2) <strong>and</strong>weigh the sheet as accurately. Record thisweigh as W13. Measure <strong>and</strong> record the total area <strong>of</strong> thefilter paper.4. Record the measurement as A5. Carefully place the filter paper in thecentre <strong>of</strong> the aluminium foil sheet.6. Do not blend, fold or alter the filter paper.it should remain flat.7. Choose liquid, cosmetic oil to be tested.8. Draw several millimetres in to the BD 5mlsyringes9. Hold the syringe over the centre <strong>of</strong> thefilter paper carefully pushes out 20 drops.10. When 20 drops hit filter paper, start atimer or stopwatch to count down for 10min. during 10 min liquid will spread in auniform circular pattern <strong>of</strong> filter paper.11. After 10 min filter paper removed fromthe aluminium foil base <strong>and</strong> cut it withscissors, cut whole saturated portion <strong>of</strong> thefilter paper away from dry section. Forbetter results.12. Measure the diameter <strong>of</strong> the saturatedportion <strong>of</strong> the filter paper. If spread was notperfect circle, then take several diameterreadings around the spread area <strong>and</strong>determine an average diameter. Record themeasurement <strong>of</strong> it.Different methods to determinespreadibilityThere are two methods <strong>of</strong> determining thepercent spread <strong>of</strong> test liquid on the filterpaper. They both the method are independedfrom each other.i. It can be done by comparing thedifferences in dry weight.ii. It can be done by measuring thedifference in dry area [18].f) In-vitro drug release study <strong>of</strong> herbalantid<strong>and</strong>ruff shampooThe in vitro release study <strong>of</strong> the preparedherbal antid<strong>and</strong>ruff shampoo was carriedout using Keshary–Chien (K.C) diffusion cellusing a cellophane membrane in phosphatebuffer pH 6.8 for 24 h.

SLNs wereprepared by using hot homogenizationmethod for better control release over thekinetics, very long term stability <strong>and</strong> actualamount <strong>of</strong> drug to be encapsulated. Herethe formulation <strong>of</strong> allicin loaded SLNsprepared by using the soy lecithin, tween80, drug <strong>and</strong> some organic solvent. Soylecithin is used as a phospholipids, Tween80 as a surfactant. Surfactant can act as awetting agent <strong>and</strong> lowering the surfacetension <strong>of</strong> solution. Then it was evaluatedby using zeta potential, particle size, SEM<strong>and</strong> drug loaded capacity to achieve desiredSLNs. Now, Antid<strong>and</strong>ruff shampoo wereprepared by homogenization method, byusing the drug, EDTA, CMC, saturatedsolution <strong>of</strong> Nacl solution, sodium laurylsulphate, peppermint oil, lemon oil etc.sodium lauryl sulphate is used as a nanionic surfactant. Lemon oil is also act as aanti- d<strong>and</strong>ruff agent <strong>and</strong> also act as aperfume. At different concentration <strong>of</strong> SLSwere used for the evaluation parameter thebatches were concluded <strong>and</strong> optimized.Allicin loaded SLNs herbal Antid<strong>and</strong>ruffshampoo was prepared successfully.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTAuthors wish to express their thanks to allfaculty members <strong>and</strong> my friends <strong>of</strong> thecollege for their help <strong>and</strong> co‐operationwhile carrying out this research work.REFERENCES1.
