Which physical and structural factors of liposome carriers control their drug-loading efficiency?

The correlation between structural and physical properties of lipid membrane and its drug-loading efficiency were studied. The properties of bilayer were altered by incorporation of several lipidic modifiers: cholesterol, oleic acid, methyl oleate, and pegylated lipid. By using the molecular probe technique it was demonstrated that the membrane properties, such as micropolarity, microviscosity and free volume were considerably changed by incorporation of the modifiers.
