General description

TWEEN 60 is a niosome.

Application

Polyethylene glycol sorbitan monostearate, or TWEEN 60, has been used in a study to assess encapsulation of functional lipophilic components in surfactant-based colloidal delivery systems. It has also been used in a study to investigate doxorubicin loaded magneto-niosomes for targeted drug delivery.
