“…Regarding the lipid polymorphism, liquid crystalline phases have been formed by the self-assembly of hydrated mixtures of lyotropic lipids, co-lipids (oils or surfactants), and an aqueous phase, which may contain dissolved biomolecules (e.g., proteins, peptides or nucleic acids) [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36]. Hydrated non-lamellar lipids (such as monoolein (MO)) can self-assemble into inverted bicontinuous cubic phases, bicontinuous sponge or inverted hexagonal phases depending on the experimental conditions and the applied stimuli [4,5,18,25,29,30,31,32].…”
