Glycoproteins were isolated from influenza virus with the use of cationic detergent dodecyltrimethylammoniumbromide and attached to preformed liposomes. Liposomal vesicles, thus, acquired their ability for hemagglutination and lysis of chicken erythrocytes. The possibility of using these liposomes for transfer of alien agents into eucaryotic cells is discussed.
