Schematic depicting the structure of micelles (left) and their ability to incorporate hydrophobic drugs within their internal hydrophobic core, or liposomes (right) which can accommodate both hydrophilic as well as hydrophobic drugs either in the internal aqueous (hydrophilic core) compartment or within the liposomal bilayer (hydrophobic core).
