thread_title:  carbox-ysome/isome ? 

message: Lir, "and/or" looks clumsy in an encyclopedia, and should be reworded where ever possible, see: http://newark.rutgers.edu/~jlynch/Writing/a.html#andor.  A rewording I find useful is:
:A and/or B
to 
:A and B, or both
Logically the same, but looks and reads better.  The way it's worded now is ambiguous, is it:
(store AND transport) AND/OR digest
store AND (transport AND/OR digest)

message: Should this page be merged (together with micelle) under a new heading "lipid structures"? --Eleassar777 14:50, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think it should be merged.  Vesicles are important enough to deserve their own article and merging it as "lipid structures" would cause some problems since this would mean phospholipids, cholestrol, fats, etc. would have to be included as well.  In addition, lysozymes are not the only enzymes lysosomes produce and I only think white blood cells and some bacteriophages (which wouldn't have lysozymes anyway)...I changed cut some of the discussion on lysosomes to keep the article more concise. --Kinglz 21:46, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

text: I also do not think a merger is wise. A vesicle is different in structure, location and function. Snellios (talk) 17:30, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge with micelle? 

message: The article needs a fair amount of work to define it better. It might be worthwhile considering what should be included here and what should be redirected elsewhere. I don't have a lot of input right now as I'm pretty busy. Flyguy649 19:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleanup needs 

message: I did not find any obvious mistakes in this article. I have a doctoral degree in general biology, likely should be enough. The article would benefit from cleanup, but this is another story. Audriusa 16:51, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  yes, but what is it? 

message: I'm gonna work on overhauling this article to make it more understandable.

thread_title: first paragraphs

message: Perhaps this article should be merged with exosomes/microvesicles? Or at least mention them. I think the relationship between exosomes, vesicles and microvesicles/microparticles needs to be clarified. Granted, it seems pretty muddy at times in the literature, but if that's the case it needs to be mentioned.Cyrux (talk) 20:21, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Exosomes and microparticles 

message: This article could benefit from splitting the chemistry article away.  This article (as of June 12 2013) is all about biology.  The topics are mostly divergent, particularly on the basis of size.  Vesicles are liquid, self-organizing crystals of surfactant.  A large amount of discussion can be had about just the chemistry, particularly about the 5 or 6 other liquid crystal forms and why and when vesicles form as opposed to other crystals:  here's a hint, they are thermodynamically unstable.

thread_title: Chemistry and Biology

message: Vesicle in biology and vesicle in chemistry are different... Why are they kept in the same page? It's of no use... The page deals mostly with the biological vesicle
AGREE
The term vesicle is used in specifically inorganic chemistry as a precursor condition/element to organic (biological) life.  In geology a vesicle is a cavity formed in volcanic rock by entrapment of a gas bubble during solidification (tfd).  Tfd defines vesicle simply as a small enclosed structure or cavity.  As there is no mention of uses of the term in (inorganic) chemistry (paleobiology, geology etc) the article's title should be corrected so as to make this clear (or the introduction should be changed and the article expanded accordingly).  At present the title is highly misleading. LookingGlass (talk) 21:58, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified  on Vesicle (biology and chemistry). Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
*Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20050621082405/http://www.biochemweb.org:80/lipids_membranes.shtml to http://www.biochemweb.org/lipids_membranes.shtml
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at ).
Cheers.—InternetArchiveBot (Report bug) 21:57, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Vacuoles and lysosomes are organelles that are not vesicles. They might be excluded from the page, but I think keeping them is OK since they are "vesicular"/vesicle-like structures. My very best wishes (talk) 17:17, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
