In recent years, significant progress has been made in transdermal drug delivery systems,
but there is still a search for enhancers that can improve the absorption of active substances …

The use of ultrasound for the delivery of drugs to, or through, the skin is commonly known as
sonophoresis or phonophoresis. The use of therapeutic and high frequencies of ultrasound …

Transdermal drug delivery is an attractive alternative to conventional techniques for
administration of systemic therapeutics. One challenge in designing transdermal drug …

For several decades, there has been interest in using the skin as a port of entry into the body
for the systemic delivery of therapeutic agents. However, the upper layer of the skin, the …

An in vitro mechanics approach to quantify the intercellular delamination energy and
mechanical behavior of isolated human stratum corneum (SC) in a direction perpendicular …

Multiphoton excitation laser scanning microscopy, relying on the simultaneous absorption of
two or more photons by a molecule, is one of the most exciting recent developments in …

Information on the penetration depth, pathways, metabolization, storage of vehicles, active
pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and functional cosmetic ingredients (FCIs) of topically …

A two-dimensional microscopic transport model of the stratum corneum (SC) incorporating
corneocytes of varying hydration and permeability embedded in an anisotropic lipid matrix is …

The purpose of this study is to monitor in vivo the effect of chemical penetration enhancers
on the delivery of trans-retinol into human skin. Chemical penetration enhancers reversibly …

The full parameterization for the stratum corneum biphasic microtransport model presented
previously in this Journal [95: 620–648 (2006)] is developed through a combination of …
