Abstract

Resorcinolic lipids isolated from Anacardium occidentale nut oil extract (CNSL), unsaturated congeners of those isolated from bacterial and graminaceous sources, form at alkaline conditions liposomal structures alone as well as in the mixtures with cholesterol, fatty acids or phosphatidylethanolamine. Those vesicular structures show relatively high entrapment of the marker and stability of their size. The retention of the captured solute depends upon the type of resorcinolic lipid and on the temperature, but in general, is lower than control phospholipid liposomes.
