Popis: Fully loaded: Noncovalent anchoring of liposomes into polymer multilayered films with cholesterol-modified polymers allows the preparation of capsosomes-liposome-compartmentalized polymer capsules (see picture). A quantitative enzymatic reaction confirmed the presence of active cargo within the capsosomes and was used to determine the number of subcompartments within this novel biomedical carrier system.
