Liposomes protect, transport, and release your drug or ingredients at the right place and time. “The history of liposomes goes back to mid-1960s and credit of their birth goes to Banghamand and his coworkers, who discovered that phospholipids in presence of suitable solvents form bilayered membranes which finally curl-on to form unilamellar of multilamellar vesicles. The history of liposomes can be divided into three periods: Genesis, Middle age, and Modern era. A few years later, the structural description of liposomes was unveiled as small devices made of one or more closed phospholipid bilayers.” Liposomes have been further developed by pharmaceutical and later cosmetic industries also started to use liposome technology since 1986. The major types of liposomes are the multilamellar vesicle, the small unilamellar liposome vesicle, and the large unilamellar vesicle and the cochleate vesicle.
