niosomes

Also known as: NIOs, non-ionic surfactant vesicles

Taxonomy: Mechanism Branch / Architecture. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.

Summary

Niosomes (NIOs), a class of nanovesicular drug delivery system... resulting from the self-assembly of non-ionic surfactants (with or without cholesterol) in aqueous media.

Usefulness & Problems
