Efficiency of Azithromycin-Loaded Lipid Polymer Hybrid Nano-vehicle as a Repurposing formulation in Colon Cancer Management by Tarraf, Vanessa

“…The results displayed Nano metric size range for azithromycin-loaded uncoated and coated liposomes of values 65.5± 2.83 nm and 73.53 ± 2.01 nm, respectively with uni-modal particle size distribution with PDI less than 0.3. The shifting of the negative charge (-17.22± 5.99 mV) of the uncoated liposomes to the positive charge (13.17± 3.34 mV) of the coated one approved the success of the coating. …”
