In recent years, much research has focused on investigating new methods of drug delivery. One of these includes encapsulating drug particles in lipid vesicles, more commonly referred to as liposomes. Various methods exist of synthesizing liposomes such as injection of lipids dissolved in an ethanol solution into an aqueous environment. This particular method of synthesizing liposomes, while still successful, can result in variability with respect to the size of the vesicles produced. The focus of this project was to create a microfluidic device for a client in the Thomas J. Long School of Pharmacy to aid in his liposome research. The device adapts the ethanol injection method to a microscale platform to allow for a greater degree of control...
