Molecules encapsulated in liposomes are better absorbed in skin, compared to conventional formulations.

Would be crazy if they can vaccinate is through our skin via parasites!

Magnetotactic bacteria usually mineralize either iron oxide magnetosomes, which contain crystals of magnetite (Fe3O4), or iron sulfide magnetosomes, which contain crystals of greigite (Fe3S4). Several other iron sulfide minerals have also been identified in iron sulfide magnetosomes—including mackinawite (tetragonal FeS) and a cubic FeS—which are thought to be precursors of Fe3S4. One type of magnetotactic bacterium present at the oxic-anoxic transition zone (OATZ) of the southern basin of the Pettaquamscutt River Estuary, Narragansett, Rhode Island, United States is known to produce both iron oxide and iron sulfide magnetosomes.

The lipid coating is what they are utilizing for everything!

The word liposome derives from two Greek words: lipo ("fat") and soma ("body"); it is so named because its composition is primarily of phospholipid. Liposomes were first described by British haematologist Alec Douglas Bangham in 1961 (published 1964), at the Babraham Institute, in Cambridge.

Quantum dots can be manufactured by a number of processes from colloidal synthesis to chemical vapour deposition (CVD). The cheapest and simplest method is benchtop colloidal synthesis. Electrochemical techniques and CVD can be used to create ordered arrays of quantum dots on a substrate material.15 Dec 2006

Indeed, coronaviruses are known to make use of lipids as target cell entry receptors, and as factors in viral replication complex synthesis and formation. Moreover, a recent study showed that small molecules such as sterols and cyclo- dextrin may disrupt the lipid-dependent attachment of the virus to host cells, and as such may reduce the infectivity of the SARS-CoV-2.6 One possible aspect of these observations that has yet to be explored in detail is what role arthropods that have been associated with human skin infestation, such as Demodecidae or Pyemotidae species, play in viral transmission. These arthropods share a common polymer, chitin, as an integral part of their exoskeletons. Chitin and chitosan, the enzymatic product of chitin produced through bacterial degrada- tion, have unique properties that have stimulated interest in their pos- sible biomedical applications. They are both non-toxic, biodegradable, biocompatible, and can form films on the skin, and these unique prop- er
