Herbal compounds, so-called phyto-constituents, illustrate poor stability and absorption. Niosomes, which are made of nonionic surfactants, create better chemical and stability conditions, higher absorption rate and bioavailability besides lipid vesicles. This study covers the preparation and characterization of phyto-niosomes of grape stem extract by modified thin film hydration technique. The developed formulations were statistically optimized using response surface methodology, The applied Box–Behnken design had three factors with three levels for each factor. Hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB), phytosterol percent and extract amount were selected as the formulation variables. The results showed that extract concentration was the most important parameter affecting the encapsulation efficiency and poly dispersity index. Also HLB had the most important effects on the particle size. The optimized phyto-niosomes showed vesicle size, entrapment efficiency and poly dispersity index (PDI) of 173nm, 72% and 0.32 respectively .Before the encapsulation process, extracts of dried stems were prepared by Green extraction method and phenolic composition was identified with LC-MS/MS. Indeed, it was found that phyto-niosomes could be represented as an inexpensive and efficient nano vesicular carrier for nutraceuticals delivery in food industry.
