Liposomes

A liposome is a nanocapsule consisting of fat-like phospholipids and water, created artificially to transport and deliver various substances into the body. **Scientists** have been studying the structure of these microsystems for a long time, but understanding the nature of liposomes did not come immediately. Scientists received the first data about what liposomes are between 1959 and 1968. The discovery was made by French biochemist Maurice Knudsen, who observed that when lipids reacted chemically with bases such as oleum, formations formed around the resulting compound. After 3 years, these formations were examined under a microscope and later received the name “liposomes.”

Properties of liposomes Today, many scientists in the world have become interested in liposomes, who, through numerous studies, find out the nature of their structure, obtain new results, and make new contributions to this science. In terms of studying the structure of the phospholipid membrane, the large role of the Russian
