Purpose: The production of nano-erythrosomes (NEs) by extrusion, which is considered the "gold standard", has several disadvantages such as difficult equipment assembly, long procedure time, variable pressure, and problems with sterility. An alternative approach, using ultrasound probe, has been shown to overheat the sample and have suboptimal results compared to the extrusion method. In our study, we propose, develop, and test a new method for the fabrication of NEs based on shear force and then compare it to the "gold standard" extrusion approach.
