Area of Science:

  • Nanomedicine
  • Biotechnology
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Anionic liposomes (AL) show promise in nanomedicine but face challenges in production and rapid clearance by the immune system.
  • Stealth anionic liposomes (SAL) aim to improve circulation time but often suffer from high polydispersity using conventional methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To optimize the production of anionic liposomes (AL) and stealth anionic liposomes (SAL) using a novel one-step microfluidic process.
  • To achieve controlled size and high monodispersity in both AL and SAL formulations for enhanced drug delivery.

Main Methods:

  • A one-step microfluidic process was employed for the synthesis of AL and SAL.
  • Liposome characterization included size, monodispersity, and morphology analysis.

Main Results:

  • Unilamellar and near-monodisperse (< 10%) AL with a mean size of 53.7 nm were successfully produced.
  • SAL with similar characteristics and significantly reduced polydispersity (< 30%) were also obtained via microfluidics.
  • The microfluidic technique demonstrated efficient one-step production of stealth anionic nanoliposomes with controlled and reproducible properties.

Conclusions:

  • The microfluidic technique offers a streamlined and effective method for producing high-quality anionic liposomes and stealth anionic liposomes.
  • This optimized production method overcomes limitations of conventional techniques, paving the way for advanced nanomedicine applications.
  • The controlled size and improved characteristics of these nanoliposomes are highly suitable for drug delivery systems.
