Liposomes

Liposomes
We can supply bulk manufactured liposomes directly for use in tissue culture or animal experiments or prepare nucleic acid:liposome complexes using our liposomes and plasmid preparations provided by the investigator. We will provide critical QA/QC information about these liposome complexes by performing sub-micron particle size analysis, and by determining overall charge by zeta potential analysis.

Short Term Development Projects for Novel Liposomes:
We can also prepare "customized" liposomes. For example, we are able to add prepared antibodies or proteins to the surface of nucleic-acid liposome complexes for targeted delivery.

Long Term Development Projects:
For more extensive modifications we are prepared to collaborate with investigators, to develop materials that can be used in joint applications for external funding.
