Abstract: Provided is a monodisperse agglomerate of a substance-containing vesicle filled with a substance at a concentration higher than conventionally possible. A mixed solution, in which a target substance is included in an aqueous medium, is mixed with a monodisperse agglomerate of a crosslinked vesicle comprising a prescribed polymer which includes a first polymer, i.e. a block copolymer having uncharged hydrophilic segments and first charged segments, and a second polymer having second charged segments carrying a charge opposite to that of the first charged segments, and in which the first polymer and/or the second polymer are/is crosslinked. As a result, the crosslinked vesicle is made to contain the target substance.

Abstract: A vesicle comprising fine metal particles, which has a membrane formed from both a first polymer of (a) or (b) shown below and a second polymer of (c) or (d) shown below (with the proviso that a combination of (b) and (d) is excepted), wherein partial crosslinking occurs between a cationic segment and an anionic segment in the above polymers: First polymer: (a) a block copolymer (I) having both an electrically non-charged hydrophilic segment and a cationic segment (b) an amino acid polymer (I) having a cationic segment Second polymer: (c) a block copolymer (II) having both an electrically non-charged hydrophilic segment and an anionic segment (d) an amino acid polymer (II) having an anionic segment.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide an electrostatically bonded vesicle which bears disulfide bonds or thiol groups. The present invention relates to a vesicle having a membrane which is formed from both a first polymer of (a) or (b) and a second polymer of (c) or (d) (with the proviso that a combination of (b) and (d) is excepted) and in which the cationic segment and anionic segment of the polymers are partially crosslinked. First polymer: (a) a block copolymer (I) having both an electrically non-charged hydrophilic segment and a cationic segment, (b) an amino acid polymer (I) having a cationic segment. Second polymer: (c) a block copolymer (II) having both an electrically non-charged hydrophilic segment and an anionic segment, (d) an amino acid polymer (II) having an anionic segment.

Abstract: Provided is a method for easily and efficiently producing encapsulated substance vesicles wherein a substance is encapsulated in the cavity of vesicles obtained by polymer self-assembly. Empty vesicles that have membranes comprising a first polymer that is a block copolymer with uncharged hydrophilic segments and a first kind of charged segments and a second polymer with a second kind of charged segments that carry a charge that is the opposite of said first kind of charged segments as well as spaces that are enclosed by said membranes are mixed in an aqueous medium with the substance that is to be encapsulated in the spaces.
