Abstract

Unimolecular hyperbranched micelles interact with liposomes to form stabilized, water-soluble vesicles. The liposomes in solution undergo a change in the lipid vesicle structure from small unilamellar vesicles (SUV) to large unilamellar vesicles (LUV). The LUV's were stabilized by Core(hex)PEG5 and remained unchanged up to 60 days. Dyes are incorporated within the structures to directly ascertain the mode of polymer-liposome interaction.
