Abstract
In this chapter, we describe the generation of immunoliposomes by means of two different methods applying different scFv formats. The cloning strategies of these scFv variants possessing an additional cysteine residue for site-directted coupling are also presented in this chapter. Furthermore, a procedure for preparation and analysis of drug-loaded immunoliposomes is presented.
