Transparent Surfactant‐Based Isotropic Systems for Topical Co‐Delivery of Hydrophilic and Lipophilic Actives for Striae Distensae

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Striae distensae are common dermal lesions that negatively affect skin appearance, and topical management remains limited by challenges related to skin deposition and residence time. Here, we developed transparent surfactant‐based isotropic systems for the topical co‐delivery of ascorbic acid (AA), retinoic acid (RA), and lavender essential ...

Tuning Degradation of Polylactic Acid via Size‐Controlled Silica Nanoparticles

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Particle size emerges as a simple handle to program polymer degradation. By tailoring the size of silica nanoparticles, the degradation behavior of polylactide composites can be directed towards accelerated hydrolysis or enhanced composting‐induced disintegration without changing the polymer chemistry.
