The efficacy of transfersomes (flexible liposomes) as a novel technique for topical delivery of the hydrophilic tetra-anionic photodynamic sensitizer aluminum phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate (AIPcS4) was investigated, on mammalian fibroblasts and on Balb/c mice dorsal skin. AIPcS4 was loaded in transfersomes composed of phosphatidylcholine from soy bean and sodium deoxycholate as edge activator (5:1, 10:1, and 15:1 w/w, ratios), resulting in 110-, 160-, and 200-nm mean size vesicles with encapsulation efficiencies of 16, 25, and 30%, respectively
