Liposome
Introduction:
Liposome is the type of extremely small artificial sacks made up of lipid monolayers or the layers can be more than one.
The outer layers are very reactive chemically and helps in the coupling of antigens, nucleic acid probes, cell recpetors and antibodies.
Size:
Liposomes may range from 50 nm to 800 nm.
