Glycolipid Based Niosomal Delivery System for Drugs and Biomolecules
Implementing Organization
Institute of Microbial Technology (IMTECH), Chandigarh
Project Overview
Niosomes, by virtue of its vesicular structure, can house both hydrophilic and hydrophobic molecules within its compartments. By exploring the structure-forming attributes of acidic sophorolipid (a microbial glycolipid) we have developed a carrier system for drug and biomolecule delivery. The versatile system can be synthesized with different charges (+Ve/-Ve), size and physical characteristics.
