title: The chemical modification of liposome surfaces via a copper-mediated [3 + 2] azide-alkyne cycloaddition monitored by a colorimetric assay.
abstract: A generic method for the efficient in-situ modification of liposomes is described based on "click" chemistry, and a simple colorimetric assay is developed for monitoring the reaction.
