Book Description
This book provides an up-to-date evaluation of clinical aspects of newly available "long-circulating liposome" formulations. Based on results from numerous clinical studies, the book describes the fundamentals of this new technology, discusses how it may influence the pharmacology of existing well-known agents reformulated in this manner, and elaborates on future expectations. It provides the practicing clinician - in particular, oncologists and critical care infectious disease physicians - with the tools needed to use these new formulations towards the best outcome for the patient.

Book Description
This book is devoted to a broader understanding of liposomes as a versatile tool used in many domains, including basic research and applied technology, focusing on less common applications and recent developments. Over the past few years, new types of liposomes made of nonphospholipid molecules have opened new perspectives in applications. These lipid vesicles, already used in cosmetology, are being manufactured for industrial and agricultural uses. However, "Stealth" liposomes, pH-sensitive liposomes, and cationic liposomes have enlarged and improved the application field of liposomes in clinical research. The book covers these different uses of liposomes with particular attention to new formulations and new applications.

Book Description
Cancer is a Major cause of death in today's fast changing world. Many recent developments involve in targeting Cancer cells without harming the normal celss. This book deals with Targeting Gemcitabine Containing Stealth (PEG Coated) Liposomes targeting Cancer cells. Breast Cancer cells are researched in this book. Cytotoxic and biodistribution studies are successfully carried out. Detailed methods of various preparations of liposomes are mentioned. Various characterization techniques like SEM and TEM are carried out and explained. Cytotoxic studies like cell line study is carried out on MCF-7 Cell line. Biodistribution distribution srudies are also carried successfully on Rats. This is one and half year core research from Parul Institute of Pharmacy, ACTREC (Advanced Center for Traetment, Research and Education on Cancer), Mumbai, Indian Institute of Technology, Powai and Sun Pharma Advanced research center, Vadodara. Author, Varshik Hemani, is also coming up with in-depth research on Wireless Drug Delivery System. This is current ongoing project at MIT, Boston, USA.

Book Description
Liposomes have received increased attention in recent years. Nevertheless, liposomes, due to their various forms and applications, require further investigation. These structures can deliver both hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs. The preparation of liposomes results in different properties for these systems. In addition, there are many factors and difficulties that affect the development of liposome drug delivery structures.The purpose of this book is to concentrate on recent developments in liposomes. The articles collected in this book are contributions by invited researchers with long-standing experience in different research areas. We hope that the material presented here is understandable to a broad audience, not only scientists but also people with a general background in many different biological sciences. This volume offers up-to-date, expert reviews of the fast-moving field of liposomes and is divided in two major sections: 1. Introduction; 2. Liposomes general properties
