MANUFACTURE OF FREEZE-DRIED LIPOSOME MIXTURES AND OF AQUEOUS LIPOSOME COMPOSITIONS

摘要

Process for preparing a freeze-dried, potential liposome, mixture which comprises either (a) dissolving at least one liposome-forming amphipathic lipid, at least one biologically-active compound, and optionally one or more adjuvants, in a suitable solvent, and then freeze-drying the solution, or (b) preparing by any known method an aqueous liposome composition containing at least one biologically-active compound, and then freeze-drying the said aqueous liposome composition. Process for preparing an aqueous liposome composition which comprises dispersing said freeze-dried, potential liposome, mixture, obtained by procedure (a) or (b), in a suitable aqueous medium.
