International ClassA61K 009/14AbstractThis invention discloses a composition comprised of nanoparticles having a non-ionic surfactant as a surface modifier adsorbed on the surface thereof and a charged phospholipid as a cloud point modifier associated therewith, which cloud point modifier is present in an amount sufficient to increase the cloud point of the surface modifier. A preferred non-ionic surfactant surface modifier is a poloxamine or tyloxapol, and preferred charged phospholipid cloud point modifiers include dimyristoyl phosphatidyl glycerol. This invention further discloses a method of making nanoparticles having a non-ionic surfactant as a surface modifier adsorbed on the surface and a charged phospholipid as a cloud point modifier associated therewith, comprised of contacting said nanoparticles with the cloud point modifier for a time and under conditions sufficient to increase the cloud point of the surface modifier.Field of SearchLiposomesMatrices Particulate form (e.g., powders, granules, beads, microcapsules, and pellets) Cellulose derivatives Ethyl cellulose Containing waxes, higher fatty acids, higher fatty alcohols, or derivatives thereof Contains waxes, higher fatty acids, higher fatty alcohols Contains natural gums and resins Containing solid synthetic polymers Gelatin Containing proteins and derivatives Containing natural gums/resins Contains proteins or derivative or polysaccharides or derivative Coated (e.g., microcapsules) Containing polysaccharides (e.g., sugars) Contains solid synthetic resin LIPOSOMES (E.G., ENCAPSULATION, ETC.)
