Bilosomes, also known as bile vesicles, are bilayer vesicles that are formed by the hydration of bile salts. They have gained significant attention in recent years due to their potential use in various applications, including drug delivery and nutraceuticals. In this review, we discuss the various techniques used for the preparation of Bilosomes, including the film hydration, reverse phase evaporation, and ether injection methods. We also discuss the characterization techniques used to study the properties of Bilosomes, such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Additionally, we discuss the potential applications of Bilosomes, including their use as drug delivery systems for hydrophobic drugs, as well as their use in the food and nutraceutical industries. Finally, we discuss the current state of the Bilosomes market, including the currently available commercial products. Overall, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in Bilosomes research and highlights the potential of Bilosomes in various fields.
