Offers a comprehensive overview of the medical applications of pharmaceutical particulate carriers, discussing the various routes of administration and controlled delivery of sites of action. Intravenous liposomal therapy for retroviral infections, especially AIDS, is discussed.
Since the first edition of "Liposomes - A Practical Approach" was published in 1990, liposome technology has become a highly successful and rapidly developing area of preclinical and clinical research. During the 1990's, a number of liposome-based drugs reached the market in the US and Europe and several new aspects of liposome research have been ...
A panel of skilled researchers describes in step-by-step detail their best laboratory techniques for elucidating liposome biology. With these readily reproducible methods, investigators can illuminate such critical questions as the attachment of liposmes to cell surfaces, the permeation of liposomes through the plasma membranes, and the stability ...
Many specialists are not familiar with both drug delivery and the molecular biology of DNA vectors. "Liposomes in Gene Delivery" covers both - molecular biologists will gain a basic knowledge of lipids, liposomes, and other gene delivery vehicles; lipid and drug delivery scientists will better understand DNA, molecular biology, and DNA ...
Offers a concise, logically organized survey of vesicular science and the practical applications of vesicles--including the latest advances in drug delivery. Contains over 2500 helpful citations to the literature, more than 220 drawings and photographs, many in color, and some 350 equations. Presents important topics that indicate the current ...
This volume covers the preparation methods, characterization, physical and chemical properties of giant vesicles. It provides an overview of ideas and results obtained from experimental studies as well as from theoretical approaches, covering a wide variety of aspects ranging from pure mathematics and physical considerations, to biochemical and ...
This up-to-date reference covers the basics of liposomology, offering insights from over 30 scientists involved in its growth and considering the direction of future developments. It describes the liposome patent portfolio developed over the last 30 years. Outlining the procedures that bring liposome pharmaceuticals from laboratory to clinic, ...
"Liposome Technology, Second Edition" is an updated, expanded new edition of a classic volume in the field. It covers all aspects of liposome technology, including liposome preparation and analysis, drug entrapment, and techniques used for in vivo and in vitro evaluation of liposomes. Leading authorities have contributed 70 chapters to create what ...
Liposomes have become an important model in fundamental biomembrane research, including biophysical, biochemical, and cell biological studies of membranes and cell function. They are thoroughly studied in applications, such as drug delivery systems in medical applications and as controlled release systems, microencapsulating media, signal carriers ...

This book examines stealth liposomes from a multidisciplinary approach, which includes theoretical polymer physics, organic synthesis, colloid science, and biology. Discussions include theory, chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, preclinical studies in model systems, and medical applications in humans.
This book is about liposomes and their uses in drug delivery. Conventional use of drugs is marred by side effects due to indiscriminate drug action, inability of drugs to reach areas in need of pharmacological intervention and drug premature inactivation and secretion. Liposomes incorporating drugs can direct these to diseased areas, in isolation ...
Provides an update on recent progress with liposomal delivery systems and discusses such subjects as the development of long-lived liposomes; their use as immunological adjuvants in vaccines; their use in cancer and antiviral therapy; liposomes as a blood surrogate; and topical applications.
Liposomes have become an important model in fundamental biomembrane research, including biophysical, biochemical, and cell biological studies of membranes and cell function. They are thoroughly studied in several applications, such as drug delivery systems in medical applications and as controlled release systems, microencapsulating media, signal ...
Lipophilic drug carriers such as lipospheres and lipid nanoparticles can modify the in vivo distribution of associated substances. They can therefore be used to improve the therapeutic index of drugs by increasing their efficacy and/or reducing their toxicity. If the delivery systems are carefully designed, lipospheres can help to overcome the ...
