METHOD OF FORMING LIPOSOMES

摘要

A method of preparing a composition of a reagent, which method comprises the steps of (i) forming empty liposomes; (ii) mixing the liposomes from step (i) with a sugar solution and a reagent; and (iii) drying the mixture from step (ii). The compositions will generally comprise less than 10 % w/v sucrose. The method can be used to form small liposomes with high entrapment efficiency. It is particularly useful in the production of pharmaceuticals.
