This summary highlights in vitro and in vivo experiments showing that nano-sized liposomes with bound polihexanide penetrate hair follicles more effectively and may extend antiseptic effects longer than conventional polihexanide solutions.
January 2024 in “Wiadomości Lekarskie” In this study, wounds treated with a combination of 0.02% Decamethoxine and Blastomunil showed enhanced healing and epithelization by the 14th day, leveraging the immunomodulatory and antimicrobial properties of the agents.
September 2019 in “University of Huddersfield Repository (University of Huddersfield)” In this study, nanoemulsion formulations were found to significantly enhance the skin retention of the antiseptic agent triclosan, with the optimal mixture being a low surfactant concentration, as demonstrated through quantitative and qualitative analysis using tape-stripping and micro CT scans.
