Erythrocyte-like liposomes prepared by means of amphiphilic cyclodextrin sulfates

Chem Commun (Camb). 2002 Mar 7:(5):430-1. doi: 10.1039/b110673b.

Abstract

A novel class of sulfated glycolipids with excellent self-assembling capacity to form stable monolayers at an air-water interface and specific erythrocyte-like liposomes was synthesised from alpha, beta, and gamma-cyclodextrins as starting materials.
