Stable Gas in Liquid Emulsions

This title is a greatly expanded and published edition of Elsevier in 1986. New material has been integrated with the original content in an organized and comprehensive manner.


Five new chapters have been included, which has been included in the lipid-coated microbubbles (LCM) and their medical applications. The new chapters contain much experimental data, which is examined in detail.


The current edition of the microbubble.

- Presents updated results from extensive multidisciplinary research on coated microbubbles
- Greatly expanded and updated 2nd edition, with five new chapters
- Fills the gap for a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the subject matter
