In the nanotechnology era much of the enhanced speed and effectiveness of equipments, techniques or material is due to their downsizing to nanometric scale. One such enhancement has been occurring in the field of nanoencapsulation. Nanoencapsulation of bioactive materials is a multidisciplinary approach to improve the efficiency and decrease the side effects of drugs, vaccines, cosmetics, slimming agents and nutraceuticals. Nanoliposomes are among the best encapsulation and controlled release systems with the ability to incorporate and protect various types of bioactives as well as deliver them to the target site inside the human or animal body. This book is an ideal source for learning about, or teaching lipid-based carrier systems, including nanoliposomes, archaeosomes, immunoliposomes, virosomes, ultradeformable vesicles and stealth liposomes from basics to post-graduate levels. Several methods of preparation and characterization of these carriers along with their in vitro and in vivo behavior are explained. Application of the nanocarriers in various areas including pharmaceutics, biotechnology, gene delivery and therapy, food technology and origin of life are covered. Particular emphasis is given to the manufacture of carrier systems without employing potentially harmful substances (e.g. volatile solvents or detergents) on small and large scale. The book also contains a unique technical glossary which is especially useful for those new to the field.
