The Importance of Liposome Preparation Method Screening

Liposome preparation method screening service is an essential service for researchers and scientists working in the field of liposome research. Liposomes, tiny vesicles made of phospholipids, are widely used in various fields such as drug delivery, cosmetics, and food industry. The choice of the right liposome preparation method is crucial for obtaining high-quality liposomes with desired properties. The selection of preparation methods for liposomes is a complex and comprehensive process that necessitates careful consideration of drug properties, drug delivery routes, mechanisms of action, and other factors. Only by leveraging the advantages of liposomes can the most suitable preparation method be chosen. In the development of liposomes, it is crucial to fully comprehend and analyze the properties and characteristics of active substances, including drug solubility, stability, and bioactivity. These factors are pivotal in selecting appropriate preparation methods. Furthermore, the significance of drug delivery routes should also be taken into account as different routes have varying requirements for liposomes. For instance, oral liposomes need to exhibit excellent gastrointestinal stability while injectable liposomes must facilitate rapid drug release. Therefore, when choosing preparation methods for liposomes, one must consider the properties of drugs, drug delivery routes, and therapeutic needs.

What Can We Do About Screening Liposome Preparation Methods?

The Study of Drug Properties

The characteristics of the active substance and the route of administration mainly dictate the choice of preparation method. Therefore, prior to screening for the optimal preparation method, it is necessary to conduct a characterization study of the active substance (drug, nutritional component, etc.). For instance, certain biomacromolecules may undergo structural (or functional) perturbations/alterations during traditional preparation methods or when exposed to detergents, organic solvent residues (with sensitive toxicity), and high shear homogenization (or ultrasound processing), which can significantly impact clinical application. Photosensitive, pH-sensitive, and temperature-sensitive active substances may influence the selection of appropriate preparation methods.

Screening Preparation Processes

The diverse array of liposomes includes small single-layer vesicles (SUV), large single-layer vesicles (LUV), giant single-layer vesicles (GUV), multilayer vesicles (MLV), and multi-layer vesicles (MVV). Consequently, it is crucial to screen appropriate preparation techniques tailored to specific research requirements. Conventional methods for liposome formation pose challenges in achieving easily scalable production processes and optimizing packaging efficiency. By conducting a comprehensive comparison of various preparation methods, we assist customers in selecting the most suitable approach.

Process Route Design

Traditional liposome preparation methods suffer from drawbacks such as inadequate stability, high polydispersity, and residual organic solvents. Specifically, the use of conventional organic solvents in liposome preparation can lead to degradation of encapsulated active ingredients and pose risks to human health and the environment. In this regard, we employ state-of-the-art or innovative techniques alongside traditional approaches to assist customers in developing eco-friendly and sustainable liposomes, thereby achieving novel processing methods. For instance, examples include the supercritical fluid-assisted technique, supercritical reverse-phase evaporation (SC-RPE) technique, supercritical anti-solvent (SAS) technique.
