Imaging ellipsometry (IE) has been applied to generate laterally resolved thickness maps of spin-coated membranes in both the dry and fully hydrated state. Spin-coating offers a convenient preparation method for stacked supported membranes, and in-depth thickness maps for such films

A mathematical model has been developed to predict the encapsulation efficiency of hydrophilic drugs in unilamellar liposomes, and will be useful in formulation development to rapidly achieve optimized formulations. This model can also be used to compare drug encapsulation efficiencies

pH-responsive polymers render liposomes pH-sensitive and facilitate the intracellular release of encapsulated payload by fusing with endovascular membranes under mildly acidic conditions found inside cellular endosomes. The present study reports the use of high-molecular weight poly(styrene-co-maleic acid) (SMA), which exhibits
International immunopharmacology, 14(4), 570-579 (2012-10-02)
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether all trans retinoic acid (ATRA) incorporated in liposome composed of distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC/cholesterol) could inhibit the metastatic lung cancer in mice more efficiently than free ATRA. Metastatic lung cancer model was developed

The packing of lipids on silica (SiO(2)) nanoparticles (NPs) was investigated by Raman spectroscopy for 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) and 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DSPC) as a function of their size, for SiO(2) NPs of 5, 15, 25, 45, and 100 nm nominal diameter.
