General research and interst description: 
Dr. Rinaldi research activity is mainly focused on the study of phospholipid and non-phospholipid vesicles as drug delivery systems (soft nanocarriers). In particular she is involved in preparation and characterization of vesicles for cytoplasmic delivery of therapeutic agents (pH-sensitive niosomes) and for topic (various niosomal formulations), oral (coated liposomes), pulmonary (coated and uncoated niosomes) and brain (liposomes/niosomes) drugs delivery. Expert in preparation and characterization of O/W Nanoemulsions, W/O Nanoemulsions, nanobubbles and drug delivery systems useful in theragnostic field. Expert in physical chemical characterization of different nanocarriers in terms of hydrodynamic diameter, ζ-potential, polydispersity index, stability over time and stability in different media, entrapment efficiency, bilayer characteristics (fluorescence spectroscopy measurements), and release rate evaluation.
