Abstract
Liposomes are spherical vesicles comprises of one or more phospholipid bilayers, which are under substantial research area as drug carriers for enhancing the delivery of drugs, nutritional agents, bioactive agents and many different compounds. The majority of those clinically approved vesicles have diameters of 50–300 nm. Among several new drug delivery systems, liposomes characterize an advanced technology to deliver active molecules to the site of action and decreases undesirable side effects upgrading its in vitro and in vivo activity, as well as reducing the toxicity of the drug and enhancing the efficacy of the encapsulated drug molecule. The present review will briefly explain the characteristics, advantages, scalable techniques based on the type of produced liposomes and potential applications of liposomes in food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
