Abstract
|
|
|
The stabilization effect of alpha-tocopherol incorporated into liposomal phospholipid membrane was investigated by fluorospectrophotometry and UV-visible spectrophotometry. The release of entrapped carboxyfluorescein from liposomes was markedly retarded by the presence of alpha-tocopherol in the bilayer of liposomal phospholipid membrane relative to cholesterol-containing liposomes and pure phospholipid liposomes. alpha-tocopherol-containing liposomes prolonged the oxidation of liposomes-embedded heme as an oxygen carrier. The oxidation index of alpha-tocopherol-containing liposomes was lower than those of cholesterol-containing liposomes and pure phospholipid liposomes. Thus alpha-tocopherol-containing liposomes may be useful for the carrier systems of nutrients and drugs to phospholipid bilayer and stabilized liposomes.
