Liposomes (phospholipid nanoparticles)

Overview of Nippon Shokubai 's liposomes

This liposome "ILINPSOME" was born from a collaborative research project using Lilac Pharma's microfluidic device [iLiNP]. It is a stable hollow particle that has achieved higher concentration and simpler composition than conventional products, and has increased the freedom of formulation. It is possible to customize the particle size, etc.

Characteristics of Nippon Shokubai 's liposomes

  1. High quality and high stability
  2. No need to add thickeners, etc., and can be stored at room temperature for over a year
  3. Approximately 200 trillion liposomes are present in 1 mL, demonstrating high permeability
Good storage stability (50℃, 1 month) of lotion formulation (1% liposome formulation)

ILINPSOME-V series (hollow type)

Cosmetic display nameQuasi-drug labeling nameContent (%)
waterpurified water73~94
Hydrogenated LecithinHydrogenated soy phospholipids5~15
BG1,3-butylene glycol1~20

Average particle size: 250nm or less
Simple composition: Does not contain xanthan gum (for stability) contained in other companies' liposomes

ILINPSOME-V-HC: 8% phospholipids
ILINPSOME-V-MC: 5% phospholipid, stable even in accelerated testing at 50℃ for 1 month, can be stored at room temperature

Approximately 200 trillion phospholipid nanoparticles are present in 1 mL of this product.

Permeability of Nippon Shokubai 's liposomes

Permeability evaluation

Liposomes made by iLiNP
・Remarkable penetration into the skin
・Suppresses transmission to the bottom
・Good stability

The amount of fluorescent dye in the initial sample was set to "100," and the amount of fluorescent dye after the penetration test was calculated as the "abundance ratio of each part to the initial sample."
