abstract |
Dispersions in transcutol/isopropylmyristate make C-60 fullerenemolecules suitable for transdermal delivery. We found that C-60 can successfully permeate the skin using pig skin in Franz diffusion cells. Molecular dynamics simulations and transmission electron microscopy confirmed these observations. Basic cosmetic formulations with transcutol/isopropylmyristate without harsh organic solvents show a high potential for delivery of C-60 for biopharmaceutical and cosmetics applications. |
