Question

Self-assembled closed colloidal structures composed of lipid bilayers are called:

• A. \( \text{Dendrimers} \)
• B. \( \text{Polymers} \)
• C. \( \text{Micelles} \)
• D. \( \text{Liposomes} \)

Hint:

Liposomes mimic biological membranes, making them ideal carriers for drugs, genes, and vaccines.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Liposomes are self-assembled vesicles composed of lipid bilayers surrounding an aqueous core. They are widely used in drug delivery systems to enhance bioavailability and target-specific release. Liposomes can encapsulate both hydrophilic and lipophilic drugs, improving therapeutic efficacy.
