  1. 1. Topical formulations, design and drug delivery : "A dive into water"

    Author : Abdullah Ali; Marie Lodén; Anan Yagmur; Anders Hall; Malmö universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; water; topical formulations; Pickering emulsion; skin cream; drug delivery; tactile friction; sensory panel; nasal; buccal; mucosa; skin; triglycerides; ethanol; drug transport; cosmetic appeal;

    Abstract : Water is a vital component regulating the properties of topical formulations and their interaction with biological barriers, such as skin and mucosa. Changing the watercontent within the frame of the pharmaceutical triangle will have a huge impact on which type of formulation, such as a cream, ointment, gel, or lotion, is formed, as well as the physical properties of the formulation.

  2. 2. Formulations, Release and Skin Penetration of Topical Anesthetics

    Author : Katayoun Welin-Berger; Brian W. Barry; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacy; FARMACI; PHARMACY; FARMACI; galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics;

    Abstract : This thesis describes certain critical aspects of the development of semisolid topical anesthetic formulations requiring a fast onset of action. Furthermore, local anesthetics were investigated regarding their phase interaction with membrane lipids. READ MORE

  3. 3. Tactile Perception : Role of Friction and Texture

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; human skin; tactile friction; finger friction; skin friction; skin tribology; biotribology; tactile perception; haptic perception; psychophysics; haptics; surface roughness; surface texture; contact area; nanostructure; model surfaces; surface wrinkling; printing paper; tissue paper; magnitude estimation; multidimensional scaling; tactile threshold; psychophysical relations; smoothness; coolness; coarseness; softness; force sensor; skin lipids; topical formulations; skin creams; taktil friktion; fingerfriktion; hudfriktion; hudtribologi; biotribologi; taktil perception; psykofysik; haptik; ytråhet; ytstruktur; ytveckning; nanostruktur; kontaktarea; modellytor; friktionskoefficient; kraftmätare; bestruket papper; obestruket papper; tryckpapper; mjukpapper; multidimensionell skalning; magnitud estimation; taktilt tröskelvärde; lenhet; mjukhet; svalhet; strävhet; hudlipider; topikala beredningar; hudkräm;

    Abstract : Tactile perception is considered an important contributor to the overall consumer experience of a product. However, what physical properties that create the specifics of tactile perception, are still not completely understood. READ MORE

  4. 4. Catanionic Aggregates in Gels : Prolonged Drug Release and Potential Implications for Topical Use

    Author : Noel Dew; Erik Björk; Stefan Ulvenlund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutics; Galenisk farmaci; Galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics;

    Abstract : Gels are popular dosage forms.  This topical dosage form may be advantageous compared to oral or parenteral dosage forms. Favorable rheological or bioadhesive properties of gels might provide extended contact times at the site of administration compared to aqueous solutions. READ MORE

  5. 5. Lipid-based liquid crystals as drug delivery vehicles for antimicrobial peptides

    Author : Lukas Boge; Martin Andersson; Lovisa Ringstad; RISE; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Liquid crystals; liquid crystalline nanoparticles; cubosome; hexosome; phase behavior; antimicrobial peptide; AMP; glycerol monooleate; proteolysis; antimicrobial effect; antimicrobial resistance; bacterial membrane; membrane interaction; infection; topical delivery; pulmonary delivery;

    Abstract : The development of antimicrobial resistance is a great challenge within health sectors worldwide. Thus, demand for new, efficient treatments is urgent in order to treat various bacterial infections. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a group of antibiotics that have gained more and more attraction in the past decade. READ MORE
