Nowadays, the freeze-drying of liposome dispersions is still necessary to provide a solid
dosage form intended for different routes of administration (ie, parenteral, oral, nasal and/or …

Abstract Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a highly sensitive technique to study the
thermotropic properties of many different biological macromolecules and extracts. Since its …

Aiming at improving the nebulization performances and lung antioxidant protection of
curcumin, chitosan or hyaluronan-coated liposomes were prepared and their characteristics …

The process of micelle formation, along with the formation of higher order aggregates, is
described for a dirhamnolipid extracellular biosurfactant secreted by Pseudomonas …

Phenylpropanoid glycosides are water-soluble compounds widely distributed, most of them
deriving from medicinal herbs. Among them, verbascoside or acteoside has exhibited a wide …

Some of our recent work has resulted in the detailed structures of fully hydrated, fluid phase
phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylglycerol (PG) bilayers. These structures were …

Low-and high-resolution models describing the internal transbilayer structure of asymmetric
lipid vesicles have been developed. These models can be used for the joint analysis of …

Aqueous dispersions of the anionic phospholipid dimyristoyl phosphatidylglycerol (DMPG),
around 100 mM ionic strength, are known to exhibit a thermal behavior similar to that of the …

Oleuropein (Ole) is the major phenolic constituent of the olive leaf (Olea europaea) and it is
also present in olive oil and fruit. In the last years several compounds from olive tree …

Incorporating recent dramatic advances, this textbook presents a fresh and timely
