They found that all the ear-infected chinchillas receiving gel containing ciprofloxacin encapsulated in negatively charged liposomes were infection-free within 24 hours. Furthermore, the animals ...

A team of researchers from Brown University has developed a new nanotechnology-based approach that could improve treatment of ...

Targeted liposomes decorated with peptides enhance the efficacy and safety of antifungal treatments against drug-resistant ...

In an advance that could lead to better treatment of troublesome fungal infections, Brown University engineers have developed a nanoscale drug ...

Using mouse cells, they found this was because of the uptake of the liposomes by immune cells responding to the infection.

Liposomes are self-closed vesicular structures composed of phospholipids that entrap water in their interior. These structures result from self-assembly of the amphiphiles in an aqueous medium ...

Researchers in ACS Nano report a topical antibiotic gel that, applied once, cured middle ear infection within 24 hours in ...

Therefore, the treatment of pulmonary TB can also benefit from the use of mannose ligands in liposomes constituting the so-called mannosylated liposomes (Man-LIPO). [77] The described examples of ...
