COLLOIDOSOMES DRUG DELIVERY: A REVIEW

The purpose of writing this review on colloidosome drug delivery was to compile the focus on the types, properties, fabrication techniques, characterisation and stability of colloidosomes .The recent developments a number of lipid based systems like lipospheres, liposomes, niosomes, ethosomes, transferosomes were developed. This system also solves the problem of insolubility, instability, rapid degradation and widely used in specialized areas like protein delivery, gene delivery, targeting to brain, tumour targeting. In the series of vascular systems Colloidosome is the advanced tool in drug delivery. Vesicular drug delivery reduces the cost of therapy by improved bioavailability of medication, especially in case of poorly soluble drugs. Colloidosomes have a great, encapsulation efficacy with a wide control over size, permeability, mechanical strength and compatibility.
