    Patent Granted for Device
    Used to Deliver Antibiotics

    Liposome Co. said it was granted a patent on its
 multilamellar liposomes, which are used to deliver
 antibiotics at the cellular level.
    The patent will also cover medicines encapsulated in the
 liposomes, including the company's TLC G-65 drug, meant to
 treat infections in AIDS patients.  TLC G-65 is still in Phase
 II clinical trials.
    The Princeton, N. J., company had a first-quarter loss of
 $1.3 million, or nine cents a share, on revenue of $1.5
 million.  In 1990, the company had a loss of $5 million, or 35
 cents a share, on revenue of $7.1 million.
