Has anybody tried making liposomal quercetin, for better absorption and possibly better delivery to where it's needed?
As a simple example, here is a video on making liposomal vit C:
(you mix lecithin granules with water in a blender, add dissolved vit C and then use a supersonic cleaner to induce formation of the liposomes)
One a much more complicated level, here's a 2006 FFT:
Liposomal Quercetin Efficiently Suppresses Growth of Solid Tumors in Murine Models

that's the pegylated kind
I wonder if I could use a speaker under the container in lieu of buying a sonic cleaner?
so the diameter of the final product might matter a lot... maybe

Clinical trials exploring different schedules of administration of quercetin have been hampered by its extreme water insolubility. To overcome this limitation, this study is aimed to develop liposomal quercetin and investigate its distribution in vivo
that's the pegylated kind
the mixtures of lecithin/cholesterol/PEG 4000/quercetin in 13:4:1:6 weight ratio were dissolved in chloroform/methanol (3:1, v/v) and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure in a rotary evaporator. The dried lipid films were sonicated in 5% glucose solution at constant container followed by concentrated and lyophilized.

small unilamellar liposomes in our studies and in a size range of 130 ± 20... nm
so the diameter of the final product might matter a lot... maybe
