Preliminary data on the encapsulation of biologically active materials in liposomes
Abstract:
Multilamellar and unilamellar phospholipid liposomes were prepared and investigated as regards their properties and the capacity of encapsulating biologically active materials, such as CrO4-(2-)ions, basic dyes, proteins, DNA, as well as Sendai virus particles. The efficiency of encapsulation ranged from 10% for CrO4-(2-)ions to about 80% for toluidine blue; it was found to depend not only on the type of encapsulated material, but also on the method used for liposome preparation and on liposome composition.
