LIPOSOMES The lamellar phases of phospholipids wherein stacked phospholipid bilayers are separated by layers of the aqueous phase convert spontaneously into multilamellar liposomes at increased water content. Unilamellar phospholipid liposomes are hollow spherical particles consisting of single phospholipid bilayer shell with the aqueous phase inside and outside of this shell.
