Luteolin is an anti-inflammatory flavonoid commonly found in many edible plants. The compound is popularly consumed as a supplement regardless of its poor water solubility (27.8 μg/mL at 25 °C) and low bioavailability. Here, mild one-pot polymerization of luteolin into water-dispersible nanospheres, with an average dry size of 234.8 ± 101.6 nm, an aqueous size distribution of 379.1 ± 220.5 nm (PDI = 0.338), an average ζ-potential of -36.2 ± 0.2 mV, and an 89.3 ± 4.8% yield, is described. The nan ...[more]
