Organic Nanovesicular Cargoes for Sustained Drug Delivery: Synthesis, Vesicle Formation, Controlling “Pearling” States, and Terfenadine Loading/Release Studies

Figure 6

AFM mechanistic analysis of the formation of nanotubes from nanovesicles: (a) randomly distributed vesicles, (c) fusion of vesicles to form pearl-chain like structures, (e) nanotubes, and (g) roughness of a tube. The corresponding profile analyses are shown in (b), (d), (f), and (h), respectively.
