Topical delivery of cosmetics and drugs. Molecular aspects of percutaneous absorption and delivery

European Journal of Dermatology, 2009
Percutaneous penetration/permeation is a useful tool for obtaining qualitative and/or quantitative information on the amount of a drug, a cosmetic substance, or any chemical that may enter a skin compartment or the systemic circulation of the human body for pharmaceutical or cosmetic purposes, or for toxicological studies.

LVAD Power Delivery: A Percutaneous Approach to Avoid Infection

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1998
Driveline infection limits the event-free survival of patients with a left ventricular assist device. With the evolving prospect of improved left ventricular assist devices in the bridge-to-transplantation or recovery setting, we sought to reduce the risk of driveline complications.As part of the Oxford Jarvik 2000 research program, we developed a ...

A Universal Delivery System for Percutaneous Heart Valve Implantation

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2016
Transcatheter heart valve implantation is an emerging technology and an alternative to surgical valve replacement. Most existing systems consist of valves sewn into balloon-expandable stents with a delivery catheter functioning with the specific valve only.

Noninvasive approach for enhancing small interfering RNA delivery percutaneously

Expert Opinion on Drug Delivery, 2015
Topically applied small interfering RNA (siRNA) can be an effective treatment for skin disorders. Using noninvasive strategies can be a safe and effective siRNA-permeation-enhancement approach for facilitating skin delivery. It has been demonstrated that noninvasive approaches for enhancing siRNA transport provide some advantages, including enhanced ...

Percutaneous absorption: transdermal drug delivery systems

1988
Transdermal drug delivery systems are topical devices designed originally to deliver a potent drug to the surface of the skin at a controlled rate. This rate was intended to be well below the maximum that human skin can accept. Thus, the fundamental concept of this novel dosage form was that the device, and not the stratum corneum, should control the ...

Cubosome Dispersions as Delivery Systems for Percutaneous Administration of Indomethacin

Pharmaceutical Research, 2005
The present study concerns the production and characterization of monooleine (MO) dispersions as drug delivery systems for indomethacin, taken as model anti-inflammatory drug.Dispersions were produced by emulsification and homogenization of MO and poloxamer in water.
