Hyperthermia-Mediated Local Drug Delivery by a Bubble-Generating Liposomal System for Tumor-Specific Chemotherapy by Ko-Jie Chen (1800664)

“…The key component in this liposomal formulation is its encapsulated ammonium bicarbonate (ABC), which is used to actively load doxorubicin (DOX) into liposomes and trigger a drug release when heated locally. Incubating ABC liposomes with whole blood results in a significantly smaller decrease in the retention of encapsulated DOX than that by lysolipid liposomes, indicating superior plasma stability. …”
