Inhalt:
Liposomes are cellular structures made up of lipid molecules, which are water insoluable organic molecules and the basis of biological membranes. Important as a cellular model in the study of basic biology, liposomes are also used in clinical applications such as drug delivery and virus studies. Liposomes Partnbsp,F is a continuation of previous MIE Liposome volumes A through E. * One of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry since 1955 * Frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike * Truly an essential publication for anyone in any field of the life sciences
