Liposome Kit has been used for the preparation of liposomes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Liposome Kit: Lipid mixtures for the preparation of liposomes contains cholesterol; L-α-phosphatidylcholine and stearylamine. Liposome kit may be used to prepare cationic (positively charge) liposomes for incorporation of materials into cells.
Liposomes can be used for different applications such as drug delivery, diagnostics, membrane models, adjuvants for vaccination and others. This lipid mixture can be used to encapsulate a broad spectrum of hydrophilic and amphipathic molecules of low, medium, and high molecular weight (including peptides, proteins, and oligo- and polynucleotides).

Chemical analysis of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) circulating in body fluids holds potentials in noninvasive diagnosis of diseases and evaluation of therapeutic treatments. However, quantification of sEVs remains a challenge due to lacking of cost-effective analytical protocols. Herein we report
