The principal nanovectors for drug delivery to have been studied so far are lipid vesicles or "liposomes". Analogs of these vectors based on polymers and known as "polymersomes" were discovered about ...

Similar in function to ballast tanks in submarines or fish bladders, many water-based bacteria use gas vesicles to regulate their floatability. In a publication in Cell, scientists from the ...

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are tiny sacs released by cells to deliver chemical messengers to other cells. Since sEVs are compatible with biological tissue they are being investigated as ...

This paper reviews the concepts that have emerged in the area of spontaneously formed worm-like micelles and vesicles in cationic and anionic surfactant mixtures. The use of Rheology, Light scattering ...
