Abstract

Liposomes, bubble or tiny vesicles consisting of one or more phospholipid bilayers. Today, they are a very useful tool in various scientific disciplines, including chemistry, colloid science, biochemistry, biology & pharmaceutical science. Along with many new drug delivery systems, liposomes distinguish and advanced technology to transport active molecules to the site of action, and at present, several dosage forms are in clinical use. This paper summarizes exclusively focuses on classification, methods of preparations, stability and applications concerning liposomal drug formulations.

Keywords: Liposomes, phospholipids, drug delivery system.
