Need to fully identify the inline references and try to find free access sources

Text (probably copied from Seyfoddin (2010)) refers to (Mehnert et al., 2001 and Small, 1986), (Manzunath et al., 2005). but hasnt included the full references. A great shame as the only reference now is to a pay-to-view article.
(Mehnert 2001 is probably Solid lipid nanoparticles: Production, characterization and applications. sadly also pay-to-view.)

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) for controlled drug delivery - a review of the state of the art. Muller et al. 2000 (17 pages, 126 refs) looks good and is free. It discusses the main production methods eg. high pressure homogenization, and others. - Rod57 (talk) 21:03, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

This change in Sept 2011 lost 2 decent sources (of 4) from the intro. Those refs here.[1][2] - Have put back in intro for now. Ref 1 shows 26 refs up to 2006. - Rod57 (talk) 03:05, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Needs structural revision

Why was the characteristics and production section introduced after the mechanism and application sections? I think it would read a little smoother to explain what the particles actually are before going into the details on how they work and could be used. A little more context on how they are used for drug delivery would also be very helpful. Madisonmonahan (talk) 03:26, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

The diagrams in the article are incorrect

The articles published by Cullis et al. indicate that the lipid nanoparticles currently in common use have an outer layer of PEGylated lipids wrapped around inverse micelles on the inside (heads in, tails out) which encapsulate mRNA payloads. The diagrams in the article do not correctly depict this. Precision NanoSystems depicts LNPs correctly on the front page of their Web site. --Coolcaesar (talk) 18:20, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
