The need for stable vaccines during the COVID-19 pandemic has merely highlighted it. In the case of niosomes as gene carriers, the scientific literature still lacks comprehensive stability studies. In this study, the physicochemical features of niosomes/nioplexes in terms of size, surface charge, and polydispersity index (PDI), along with transfection efficiency, and cytotoxicity in NT2 cells were evaluated for 8 weeks. Compared to day 0, the physicochemical features of the niosomes stored at 25 °C and -20 °C changed dramatically in terms of size, zeta potential, and PDI, while remaining in reasonable values when stored at 4 °C. However, niosomes and nioplexes stored at 4 °C and -20 °C showed nearly stable transfection efficiency values, yet an obvious decrease at 25 °C. This article provides a proof of concept into the stability of polymeric cationic niosomes and their nioplexes as promising gene delivery vehicles.
