Abstract

Lamellar lyotropic liquid-crystalline systems are thermodynamically stable, optically isotropic and are formed spontaneously. New possibilities for the development of controlled drug delivery systems are inherent in these systems in consequence of their stability and special, skin-friendly structure. The aim was to formulate and study two-component or multicomponent compositions with a relatively low Brij 96V content, liquid paraffin, glycerol and water for therapeutic purposes. The liquid crystals were examined by polarizing light microscopy and transmission electron microscopic observation of replicas produced by the freeze–fracture technique to demonstrate the presence of lamellar liquid-crystalline domains. The existence of a regular structure was determined by X-ray diffraction.
