Abstract

In order to increase the loading efficiency of drug carriers, here we demonstrated a microfluidic method to fabricate an asymmetric vesicle, which contains trichloro(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluoroocty-l)silane (TPS) inner leaflet and lipid outer leaflet. The asymmetric vesicle was characterised by fluorescence microscopy and Fourier transform infra-red spectrum. In vitro cytotoxicity of the vesicles carrying 5-fluorouacil (5-FU) has also been studied.
