WHY LIPOSOME?

They are nanoscale in size, typically ranging from 50 to 1000 nanometers in diameter, and have an aqueous core that can encapsulate both water-soluble and lipid-soluble substances. The lipid bilayer is made up of phospholipids, which are the primary building blocks of cell membranes.

The structure of liposomes allows them to serve as efficient carriers for various substances, such as drugs, vitamins, and other nutrients. The hydrophilic (water-loving) core can house water-soluble substances, while the hydrophobic (water-repelling) lipid bilayer can encapsulate lipid-soluble substances. This versatility makes liposomes an attractive option for targeted and efficient delivery of therapeutic agents and nutrients to specific cells or tissues in the body.

TARGETED DELIVERY

Liposomes can be designed to specifically target certain cells or tissues, making them an ideal tool for drug delivery. This targeted approach reduces the risk of off-target effects and improves the therapeutic index of drugs.

PROTECTION

Liposomes provide protection to the encapsulated substances from degradation and premature metabolism. This protection can enhance the stability and shelf life of the payload.

REDUCED TOXITY

In drug delivery, liposomes can reduce the toxicity of certain substances by encapsulating them, allowing for a controlled and gradual release.

NON-IMMUNOGENIC

Liposomes are not typically recognized by the immune system as foreign invaders, reducing the risk of triggering immune responses.

BIOCOMPATIBILITY

Liposomes are generally well-tolerated by the human body, as they are composed of natural lipids. This biocompatibility reduces the risk of adverse reactions and makes them suitable for medical applications.

VERSATILITY

Liposomes can encapsulate a wide range of substances, including drugs, vitamins, and other nutrients, making them versatile carriers for various applications.

CELLG8 TECHNOLOGY

CELLg8® Liposomal Delivery System is a next-generation nutrient delivery technology that can be formulated into thousands of ingredients and is also backed by extensive human clinical studies CELLg8® Powder delivery is over 90% encapsulation efficiency which is 10 times more than any other product available.

QUICKSILVER TECHNOLOGY

Quicksilver Scientific is known for its development of “liposomal delivery” technology. Liposomes are tiny lipid (fat) vesicles that can encapsulate various substances, such as vitamins, minerals, and other bioactive compounds. This encapsulation allows for better absorption and transport of these substances through the digestive system and into the bloodstream. The liposomal delivery method has been used to enhance the effectiveness of various supplements and pharmaceuticals.

Quicksilver Scientific is a company that specializes in advanced nutritional supplements and innovative delivery systems to improve the bioavailability and absorption of various nutrients and compounds. Dr. Christopher Shade, a biochemist with an environmental and analytical chemistry background, founded the company.
