3.Phytosomes
Phytosome is novel drug delivery system is a patented technology
(U.S. Patent #4,764,508) that combines hydrophilic bioactive
phytoconstituents of herbs/ herbal extracts and bound by
phospholipids.(soybean phospholipids ,lecithin)
May 1, 2023 26
Advantage of Phytosomes
Phosphatidylcholine used in preparation of phytosomes,
besides acting as a carrier also acts as a hepatoprotective.
Phytosomes show better stability profile due to formation of
chemical bonds between phosphatidylcholine molecule and
botanical extract.
Phytosome are widely used in cosmetics due to there more skin
penetration and have a high lipid profile.
By enhancing the solubility of bile to herbal constituent,
phytosomes facilitates the liver targeting.
May 1, 2023 27Phytosome Vs Liposomes
May 1, 2023 28
PHYTOSOMES LIPOSOMES
In phytosomes active chemical constituents molecules are anchored through chemical bonds to the polar head of the phospholipids.
In liposomes, the active principle is dissolved in the medium of the cavity or in the layers of the membrane. No chemical bonds are formed.
In phytosomes, PC and the individual plant compound form a 1:1or 2:1 complex depending on the substance.
In liposoes, hundred and thousands of phosphatidyl- choline molecules surround the water soluble molecule.

304.Sphingosomes
Sphingosomes can be defined as colloidal, concentric bilayered vesicles
where aqueous compartment is entirely enclosed by a bilayer membrane,
mainly composed of natural or synthetic sphingolipids.
Diameter of about 0.05 μ to 0.45 μ . “In simple way we can say sphingosome is liposome which is composed
of sphingolipid.”
Sphingosomes is more stable than the phospholipid liposome because of
the
(i) Sphingolipid are built up by only amide and ether linkage.
(ii) They also contain a smaller amount of double bonds then lecithin.
(iii) They also absorb a smaller amount oil then lecithin that in
consequence change in geometry and diameter.

Sphingosomes have better drug retention characteristics.
They can be administered by subcutaneous, intravenous, intra-arterial,
intramuscular, oral, and transdermal routes of drug administration and so forth.
They provide selective passive targeting to tumor tissue.
Sphingosomes increase efficacy and therapeutic index of the encapsulated
drug.
Stability is increased via encapsulation.
Design of sphingosomes is so flexible to allow coupling with site specific
ligands to achieve active targeting.
(i) sphingolipids are expensive, sphingosomes are not economic.
(ii) Sphingosomes have poor entrapment efficiency.
Advantages of Sphingosomes
Disadvantages of Sphingosomes
May 1, 2023 355.Virosomes
Virosomes are spherical, unilamillar phospholipid bilayer
vesicles incorporating virus derived proteins to allow the
virosomes to fuse with the target cell.
They are lipid based , synthetic vesicles consisting of viral
surface glycoproteins.
They have a typical mean diameter in range 120-180 nm.
May 1, 2023 36
It is an influenza virus.
The envelop made up of influenza
lipids constitute the membrane and
proteins called haemagglutinin (HA)
and neuraminidase (NA) are
intercalated on it.
The nucleocapsid and the genetic
material of the source virus is
present inside the envelop.

May 1, 2023 37
Virosomes act both as carrier and as adjuvant with multifunctions
during the induction of an immune response.
The carrier function comprises the positive effects of embedding the
antigen into a higher structure, the virosome particle.
The adjuvant function relates to the immune stimulating properties
of the virosomes and their components on the immune system.
It also suceeds in stimulating specific immunity without causing
non-specific inflammation.

Virosomal technology is approved by the FDA for use in
humans, and has a high safety profile.
No disease-transmission risk.
No autoimmunogenity or anaphylaxis.
Broadly applicable with almost all important drugs (anticancer
drugs, proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, antibiotics, fungicides).
Enables drug delivery into the cytoplasm of target cell.
Advantages of Virosomes
May 1, 2023 402.Non- Lipoidal biocarriers
1.Niosomes
Niosomes are a novel drug delivery system in which
the drug is encapsulated in vesicles composed mainly
of hydrated non-ionic surfactants with or without
cholesterol.
Niosomes are capable of encapsulating both lipophilic
and hydrophilic substances.
The size of a niosome ranges from some 10 nm up to
several micrometers.
Niosomes are unilamellar or multilamellar vesicles.
The vesicle is composed of a bilayer of non-ionic
surface active agents and hence the name niosomes.
May 1, 2023 41Structure of Niosomes
May 1, 2023 42
Liposomes Niosomes
Their ingredients like phospholipids are chemically unstable because of their predisposition to oxidative degradation.
Chemically stable.
They require special storage and handling. They do not require special storage and handling.
Purity of natural phospholipids is variable. Phospholipids are absent.
Liposomes are prepared from double-chain phospholipids.
Niosomes are prepared from uncharged single-chain surfactant and cholesterol .
They are expensive. They are economical.
Comparison of Niosome Vs Liposome
May 1, 2023 43Methods of Preparation
May 1, 2023 44
Solution of the surfactant with cholesterol in a volatile organic solvent
Spray onto the powder of sorbitol kept in a rotary evaporator
The evaporation of the organic solvent yields a thin coat of surfactant
on the sorbitol particles.
This preparation is termed Proniosomes.
Formation of Niosomes from Proniosomes
May 1, 2023 45
Novel technique of Niosome preparation without the use of organic solvent (Green
Method).
In this technique, surfactant, additives, and PBS (pH 7.4) were transferred into a
glass reactor with three necks.
The reactor is positioned in a water bath to control the temperature.
The thermometer is positioned in the first neck, nitrogen supplied through second
neck, and water cooled reflux in the third neck.
Niosome components are dispersed at 70 °C and is mixed for 15sec with high shear
homogenizer and immediately followed by the bubbling of nitrogen gas at 70 °C .
The “Bubble” Method
May 1, 2023 46Advantages of Niosomes
Niosomes are osmotically active, stable, and have long storage time.
Surface modification is very easy because of functional groups on their
hydrophilic heads.
Highly compatible with biological systems and low toxicity because of
their non-ionic nature.
Bio-degradable and non-immunogenic.
Improving therapeutic performance by protecting the drug from
biological environment, and hence better bio-availability.
High patient compliance because of water-based suspension of niosomes.
They can entrap both lipophilic as well as hydrophilic drugs.
They enhance the permeation of drugs through skin.
