Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of formulation on the penetration of coated and uncoated zinc oxide nanoparticles into the viable epidermis of human skin in vivo
Vania R. Leite-Silva,Marina Le Lamer,Marina Le Lamer,Washington Y. Sanchez,David Liu,Washington H. Sanchez,Isabel C. Morrow,Darren J. Martin,Heron Dominguez Torres da Silva,Tan L. W. Prow,Jeffrey E. Grice,Michael S. Roberts,Michael S. Roberts +12 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that some limited penetration of coated and uncoated ZnO-NP may occur into viable stratum granulosum epidermis adjacent to furrows, but that the extent is not sufficient to affect the redox state of those viable cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of flexing and massage on in vivo human skin penetration and toxicity of zinc oxide nanoparticles
Vania R. Leite-Silva,Vania R. Leite-Silva,David Liu,Washington Y. Sanchez,Hauke Studier,Yousuf H. Mohammed,Amy Holmes,Wolfgang Becker,Jeffrey E. Grice,Heather A. E. Benson,Michael S. Roberts,Michael S. Roberts +11 more
TL;DR: Exposure of normal in vivo human skin to these nanoparticles under common in-use conditions of flexing or massage is not associated with significant adverse events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alternative Methods to Animal Studies for the Evaluation of Topical/ Transdermal Drug Delivery Systems.
Maria Teresa Junqueira Garcia,Fabia Leal Lopes de Vasconcellos,Chloe Patricia Raffier,Michael S. Roberts,Jeffrey E. Grice,Heather A.E. Benson,Vania R. Leite-Silva +6 more
TL;DR: The current state of the art in alternative methods for topical and transdermal delivery systems development is reviewed, including technologies that can assist in the characterization of skin penetration/permeation studies.
