title: Calculating number and surface area of liposomes in any suspension.
abstract: Simple formulas for calculating the total surface area and number of liposomes in any liposome population are presented. The necessary parameters for calculating these values are the encapsulation ratio (or efficiency) of the population. When tested on theoretical liposome populations, excellent results are obtained regardless of the heterogeneity of the population.
