Enhanced Iron Removal in Experimental Iron Overload by Nanoniosomes of Desferrioxamine
Abstract: This preliminary study explores the feasibility of employing nanocapsules prepared from nonionic surfactant vesicles (niosomes) as a carrier for an iron-chelating agent, Desferrioxamine (DFO, Desferal), to enhance iron excretion from the body. The methodology consisted of creating an iron overload model in an experimental animal followed by measurement of iron excretion pattern in the urine by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Niosomes were prepared with span 60: cholesterol:dicetyl phosphate by the lipid …

Liposomes Innovative Role as a Drug Delivery System: A Detailed Analysis
Abstract: The first nanomedicine to be approved for use in clinical settings was liposomes. These are the spherical vesicles with a bilayer of phospholipids enclosing a middle empty aqueous region. Because of their extraordinary potential to stop medication deterioration and lessen unwanted effects, liposomes are being utilized more and more for targeted drug distribution. For targeted drug delivery, the pharmaceuticals can be integrated into the liposomes' aqueous space or phospholipid bilayer. …

Transfersome and Its Importance in Drug Delivery
Abstract: Transferosomes are super adaptable lipid bilayer vesicles that can infiltrate the skin intactly. Each transferosomes comprises of at any rate one inward fluid compartment, which is encircled by a lipid bilayer with uncommonly custom fitted properties coming about because of the joining of "edge activators" into the vesicular layer. Transfersomes can disfigure and go through tight narrowing (from 5 to multiple times not exactly their own width) without quantifiable misfortune. …
