چکیده

These substances display strong antioxidant, free-radical-scavenging and metalchelating activity as well as many other activities [4,5]. It has been proven, that the process of lipid peroxidation can be effectively inhibited by flavonoids [6]. The skin is the first line of our defence against external agents. This organ plays a role of very effective barrier for compounds that have been applied onto its surface and are supposed to penetrate it [7]. In the skin flavonoids could play a very important role of free radical scavengers and anti-oxidising agents in the most upper layer of the skinstratum corneum [8]. Penetrating deeper, to the level of epidermis flavonoids are involved in many enzymatic reactions [9]. The dee-

The Influence of Bicomponent Mixed Surfactants on Drop/Interface Coalescence

Effects of binary mixtures of ionic/nonionic (sodium dodecyl sulfate/2-heptanol or 1-decanol) and nonionic/nonionic surfactants (2-heptnol/1-decanol) on drop/interface coalescence of water drops in a continuous n-heptane phase were examined. The drop size reduced appreciably and the multi-step coalescence was suppressed finally as the concentration of each of the constituting components</em...

Effect of cutaneously applied nonionic surfactants and local anesthetic bases on thermal sensations.

With cutaneously applied local anesthetic bases various effects may be observed, such as a decrease in pricking pain and a change in burning, itch, and thermal sensations. These effects occur after skin penetration and may be attributed to the action of the anesthetics on nociceptors and thermoreceptors, i.e., on C and A delta nerve fibers, respectively. As little is known about the pharmacodyn...

Effects of Nonionic Surfactants on Xanthan Gum Production: a Survey on Cellular Interactions

Background: Xanthomonas campestris is a biopolymer producing gram negative bacterium. Production of xanthan biopolymer can be affected by different extrinsic factors as well as surfactants. Hitherto, effects of nonionic surfactants on xanthan production have been studied in a limited number of articles.Objective: In the present study, nonionic surfactants...

Alkyl Ethoxylated and Alkylphenol Ethoxylated Nonionic Surfactants: Interaction with Bioactive Compounds and Biological Effects

Nonionic surfactants are amphipathic molecules consisting of a hydrophobic (alkylated phenol derivatives, fatty acids, longchain linear alcohols, etc.) and a hydrophilic part (generally ethylene oxide chains of various length). Although not as important commercially, tertiary amine and various sugar surfactants are also nonionic surfactants. Due to their favorable physicochemical properties, no...

Influence of Dimethyl Sulfoxide as a Penetration Enhancer of Piroxicam Gel Through Biological Skin

      Piroxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent which has an extensive use in rheumatic disorders. Since its skin penetration is still a subject for research, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dimethyl sulfoxide on percutaneous penetration of piroxicam gel formulation through skin. In this study, as a model, two types of 0.5% piroxicam new gels, so called red and gr...
