Abstract:
The goal of any drug delivery system is spatial placement and temporal delivery of the medicament. Research works are going on to prepare an ideal drug delivery system which satisfies these needs. Researches carried out by ALEC BINGHAM lead to the development of a new drug delivery system called as liposome. Liposomes are small vesicles (_100 nm) composed of various of lipid molecules which build their membrane bilayers. These formulations are mainly composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and other constituents such as cholesterol and lipid-conjugated hydrophilic polymers . Liposomes are biodegradable and biocompatible in nature.
