26 April 2007Investigation of skin water loss and glycerol delivery through stratum corneum
Investigation of skin water loss and clearing agent delivery through stratum corneum is presented. Effectiveness of the
method "lattice of islets of damage" for enhancement of stratum corneum permeability for water and 71% glycerol
solution providing the skin clearing was investigated. Dehydration induced by both stimuli evaporation and osmotic
agent action was studied by weight measurements. Measurements of refractive index dynamics of glycerol and water
during its interaction with skin samples were carried out. The results have shown that proposed method allows effective
transepidermal water loss and delivery of optical clearing agents.
