Abstract: Compositions and methods for killing ectoparasites on a subject. Compositions containing a fatty acid ester, e.g., isopropyl myristate, effective for killing ectoparasites is described. Also described are compositions containing a fatty acid ester and a siloxane (e.g., decacyclomethicone). The compositions can also contain a mectin and/or a mycin, and S-methoprene. The compositions are useful against a variety of ectoparasites that afflict humans, animals, and plants, e.g., head lice, fleas, body lice, crab lice, scabies, ticks, and plant parasites.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions of liposomes that contain a biologically active compound and methods of manufacture thereof. Invention methods offer the ability to manufacture liposome compositions containing NSAIDs and other biologically active compounds, and the ability to attain very high encapsulation efficiencies in uniform, stable liposomes. Compositions of liposomes containing anti-viral agents and anti-fungal agents are also provided. Invention liposome compositions are useful for the treatment of a variety of conditions, including, for example, pain and inflammation, bacterial infections and viral infections.
