The aim of the study was to prepare berberine hydrochloride long-circulating liposomes and optimize the formulation and process parameters, and investigate the influence of different factors on the encapsulation efficiency. Berberine hydrochloride liposomes were prepared in response to a transmembrane ion gradient that was established by ionophore A23187. Free and liposomal drug were separated by cation exchange resin, and then the amount of intra-liposomal berberine hydrochloride was determined by UV spectrophotometry. The optimized encapsulation efficiency of berberine hydrochloride liposomes was 94.3% +/- 2.1% when the drug-to-lipid ratio was 1: 20, and the mean diameter was 146.9 nm +/- 3.2 nm. As a result, the ionophore A23187-mediated ZnSO4 gradient method was suitable for the preparation of berberine hydrochloride liposomes that we could get the desired encapsulation efficiency and drug loading.
