A Short Review on Liposome

Abstract

Liposome, sphere-shaped vesicles consisting of one or more phospholipid bilayer were first described in the 1960’s. Today we are very useful reproduction, reagent and tool in various scientific discipline. Research on liposome technology has progressed from conventional vesicles to ‘second generation’ liposomes in which long-circulating liposomes are obtained by modulating the lipid composition, size and charge on the vesicle.
