Transkarbam 12 (5-(dodecyloxycarbonyl)pentylammonium-5-(dodecyloxycarbonyl)pentylcarbamate, T12) is a highly active transdermal permeation enhancer. In this study, ketone, amide, and alkane analogs of T12 have been synthesized and evaluated for their permeation-enhancing activity using porcine skin and theophylline as a model drug. Replacement

In this study, novel crosslinked pore-filling membranes were fabricated by using a centrifugal force from the cylindrical centrifugal machine. For preparing these crosslinked pore-filling membranes, the poly(phenylene oxide) containing long side chains to improve the water management (hydrophilic), porous polyethylene
