Cubosome and Hexosome Microparticles: Shape, Rheology, and Templating
Cubosomes and hexosomes are soft particles of cubic and hexagonal phases, formed by self-assembled amphiphilic lipids. They have attracted great attention because of applications in drug delivery. Cubosomes and hexosomes have been produced at the nanoscale, exhibiting unique shapes and symmetries, …

Theranostic applications of fluorescent liquid crystalline nanoparticles
… we explored the potential of monoolein-based cubosomes and hexosomes as nanocarriers for theranostic purposes. Our work focussed on the design of lipid nanoparticles able to deliver antineoplastic drugs and imaging probes for fluorescent optical in vitro and in vivo imaging. We developed …

Structural study of lipid bicontinuous cubic phases for cellular delivery
… with internal bicontinuous cubic phase. Current cubosome formulation methods can be classified as top-down and bottom-up approach. Top-down approach fragments bulk lipid bicontinuous cubic phase system into particles via sonication or homogenization. Naturally, random shear stress and more than …

Harnessing Light-Responsive Structural Control in Surfactant Assemblies
The ability to manipulate nanoscale structure using light creates the potential for the next generation of smart, responsive materials. To create functional materials, lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) are ideal candidates due to their hierarchically-ordered nanostructures that are highly sensitive …
