- (i) Mean ± standard deviation (SD). Liposome composition- EPC:DOTAP:DOPE 50:25:25 molar. Liposomes containing DNA-hsp65 at molar charge ratio 1:10 (cationic lipid:DNA). Diameter measurements were done in independent samples: n = 8 for liposomes complexed with DNA-hsp65 and n = 9 for liposomes entrapping DNA-hsp65 and empty liposomes.
- (ii) Percentages refer to distribution number-weighted of particles.
- (iii) Mean ± standard deviation (SD). Zeta potential measurements in three independent samples (n = 3)
