Abstract

Aquasomes are circular particles that serve as nano particulate carrier systems, consisting of a solid phase nanocrystalline core coated in an oligomeric film. These three-layered self-assembled structures, ranging from 60 to 300 nanometers in size, allow direct or indirect absorption of biochemically active molecules. Aquasomes can be loaded with large amounts of agents through entropic, van der Waals, and ionic forces due to their size and active surface area. They display colloidal physical characteristics in an aqueous medium and are effective in distributing insulin, hemoglobin, serratiopeptidase, and poorly water-soluble medications.eramic nanoparticles, also known as aquasomes, are spherical particles that self-assemble into nanoparticulate carriers, resembling water bodies. These self-assembled structures are effective in the distribution of hemoglobin, insulin, and enzymes like serratiopeptidase. In this abstract, we will cover a review on Aquasomes.
