18 utline Motivation and Background Focus and Achievements Conclusion

19 Liposomes encapsulate hydrophobic nanomaterial within their hydrophobic bilayer, and hydrophilic guests in the larger interior. 'stealth /PEGylated liposomes developed for drugdelivery applications can carry specific peptides, polymers, bioactive materials. Cationic liposome NA complexes: onionlike structure with NA sandwiched between cationic membranes. Stimuli responsive liposomes aid control release of biomaterials in stimulus media (e.g. HPEG2000)
