It has been shown that mixtures of monoalkylated amphiphiles and sterols can form liquid-ordered (lo) lamellar phases. These bilayers can be extruded using conventional methods to obtain large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) that have very low permeability and a specific response

A simple one-pot polymer encapsulation method is developed for group II-VI semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) synthesized in aqueous solution. The micelles of amphiphilic polymers, such as octadecylamine-modified poly(acrylic acid), capture and encapsulate the QDs when the original hydrophilic ligands, namely
Polystyrene (PS) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends filled with octadecylamine-functionalized graphene (GE-ODA) have been fabricated to obtain conductive composites with a lower electrical percolation threshold according to the concept of double percolation. The dependence of the electrical properties of the

Indinavir, an antiretroviral protease inhibitor used in treatment of HIV infection has limited penetration into brain due to efflux of P-glycoprotein. The aim of this work was to develop transferrin coupled submicron lipid emulsions (SLEs) containing indinavir for delivery to
The structure and stability of hybrid lipid vesicles containing bilayer-encapsulated hydrophobic nanoparticles is dependent upon lipid phase behavior. By embedding stearylamine-stabilized gold nanoparticles in dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine/dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol vesicles, we show that encapsulation at lipid to nanoparticle ratios from 10,000:1 to 5000:1 leads
