Insect repellent DEET and sunscreen ingredient oxybenzone play an essential role in minimizing vector-borne diseases and skin cancers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of emulsion type, addition of thickening agent and droplet size in three emulsion-based lotions on percutaneous permeation of DEET and oxybenzone using in vitro diffusion experiments, in order to minimize overall systemic permeation of the substances. Formulation C (water-in-oil emulsion) significantly…

The potential of a site-specific delivery of thiamine hydrochloride as a novel insect repellent exerting long-term protection on human skin: In-vitro, ex-vivo study and clinical assessment.
TLDR
The high efficacy of TH-loaded hydrogel rendered it a successful alternative for DEET, offering long protection against mosquito bites, as well as an added effect of DG.
UV filter entrapment in mesoporous silica hydrogel for skin protection against UVA with minimization of percutaneous absorption
TLDR
The findings conclude that MSs containing avobenzone or oxybenzone effectively ameliorated UVA‐induced skin disruption and reduced the possible toxicity elicited by percutaneous penetration.
Evaluation of antioxidant, photoprotective and antinociceptive activities of Marcetia macrophylla extract: potential for formulation of sunscreens.
TLDR
Marcetia macrophylla showed biological activities with potential use in pharmaceutical preparations and satisfactory results concerning the physicochemical parameters evaluated and active against the UV test.
Imaging Analysis Enables Differentiation of the Distribution of Pharmaceutical Ingredients in Tacrolimus Ointments
TLDR
The combination of ATR FT-IR and confocal Raman imaging would be a powerful tool to reveal the size and shape of liquid droplets of pharmaceutical ingredients in semisolid formulations.
A Pilot Clinical Study on Thiamine Hydrochloride as a New Mosquito Repellent: Determination of the Minimum Effective Dose on Human Skin.
TLDR
A dose-response curve from which the effective dose (ED) is calculated is established and one can get prolonged safe protection against insect bites and can be supported by future works in which a proper formulation of thiamine hydrochloride in the respective doses would be presented.
Development and validation of an analytical method using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to determine ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate in topical repellent formulations
Diseases caused by insects are frequent in poor countries, leading to epidemic scenarios in urban areas; e.g., Dengue, Zika and Chikungunya. For this reason, the development of a safe and efficient…
Skin rejuvenation: Biopolymers applied to UV sunscreens and sheet masks
Abstract As the largest organ of the body and the most exposed to the environmental surroundings, the skin has increased risk of suffering injuries from harmful substances, which may compromise its…
Photoprotective effect of the fucose-containing polysaccharide FucoPol.
TLDR
The SPF-to-concentration unit ratio showed that FucoPol is about 60-fold more photoprotective than combinations of common organic and inorganic UV filters, and these results are very promising for the development of bio-based sunscreen formulations.

Formulation effects of topical emulsions on transdermal and dermal delivery
TLDR
Emulsions are widely used as cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations because of their excellent solubilizing capacities for lipophilic and hydrophilic active ingredients and application acceptability and examples substantiate the fact that emulsion constituents such as emollients and emulsifiers should be selected carefully for optimal efficiency of the formulation.

TLDR
It was shown that the rate of release is strongly dependent upon the formulation and could be decreased by 30-60% in SLN formulations, and oxybenzone was released and penetrated into human skin more quickly and to a greater extent from the emulsion.
In‐vitro permeation of the Insect repellent N,N‐diethyl‐m‐toluamide (DEET) and the sunscreen oxybenzone
TLDR
This study shows that the permeations of the insect repellent DEET and the sunscreen oxybenzone were synergistically enhanced when they were applied simultaneously.
Percutaneous absorption of parabens from cosmetic formulations
TLDR
A clear dependence of preservatives’percutaneous absorption on the time of storage was observed, the fluxes becoming constant after about three months after the timeof preparation, and the relationship between preservative activity and per cutaneous absorption is discussed.
Can increasing the viscosity of formulations be used to reduce the human skin penetration of the sunscreen oxybenzone?
TLDR
A recognition of the danger in the potential extrapolation of infinite dosing to in use situations is recognized, and to recognize that thicker formulations may sometimes enhance the penetration of other topical agents when applied "in use".

TLDR
This study clearly demonstrates that alternative formulations can be developed for DEET aimed at reduced permeation and toxicity unlike the current formulations some of which contain ethanol which has been shown to enhance permeation of DEET.
Release of benzimidazole and benzylidene camphor from topical sunscreen formulations.
TLDR
Folioxane membrane appears to be an alternative model for studying diffusion of topical molecules and as a tool for guiding formulation choices for sunscreens.
Chitosan hydrogel as a base for transdermal delivery of berberine and its evaluation in rat skin.
TLDR
This study selected berberine as a model drug to design a transdermal delivery system for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis and found benzalkonium chloride was found to be the most efficient.
Enhanced Transdermal Delivery of Diazepam by Submicron Emulsion (SME) Creams
TLDR
The SubMicron Emulsions as vehicles for transdermal delivery of Diazepam generate significant systemic activity of the drug as compared with regular creams or ointments.
A Study on the In‐vitro Percutaneous Absorption of Propranolol from Disperse Systems
TLDR
Reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography, with celiprolol as internal standard, was used to determine the concentration of propranolol in the receptor compartment and a logarithmic equations were used to estimate the apparent permeability coefficient of proPRanolol from disperse systems.
