Summary
The present protocol describes octanol-assisted liposome assembly (OLA), a microfluidic technique to generate biocompatible liposomes. OLA produces monodispersed, micron-sized liposomes with efficient encapsulation, allowing immediate on-chip experimentation. This protocol is anticipated to be particularly suitable for synthetic biology and synthetic cell research.
