Abstract

The present invention provides a bilayer structure for encapsulating multiple containment units. These containment units can attach or contain therapeutic or diagnostic agents that can be released through the bilayer structure. A suitable example of such a containment unit is a unilamellar or multilamellar vesicle.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A composition comprising a bilayer structure and multiple containment units, the bilayer structure encapsulating the multiple containment units.  
     
     
         2 . The composition of    claim 1   , wherein the containment units are aggregated within the bilayer structure.  
     
     
         3 . The composition of    claim 1   , wherein the multiple containment units include a therapeutic agent  
     
     
         4 . The composition of    claim 1   , wherein the multiple containment units include a diagnostic agent.  
     
     
         5 . A vesosome having a bilayer structure and multiple vesicles, the bilayer structure encapsulating the multiple vesicles.
