research Determination of Solute Diffusion Properties in Artificial Sebum
Diffusion in artificial sebum is mainly influenced by molecular size and is much faster than in skin lipids.
research Comparison of Artificial Sebum with Human and Hamster Sebum Samples
Artificial sebum L closely mimics human sebum for drug delivery research.
research A Composite Model for the Transport of Hydrophilic and Lipophilic Compounds Across the Skin: Steady-State Behavior
The model better predicts how water-loving and fat-loving substances move through the skin by including tiny pores and hair follicle paths.
research Rational Design of a Topical Androgen Receptor Antagonist for the Suppression of Sebum Production with Properties Suitable for Follicular Delivery
