The purpose of this research is to formulate and evaluate the suitability of pluronic lecithin organogels containing flurbiprofen for topical application. Four formulations were developed using flurbiprofen, lecithin, Pluronic F127, isopropyl palmitate, water, sorbic acid and potassium sorbate were coded

The aim of this work was to determine the type and microstructure of microemulsion samples formed in IPP/water/AerosolOT:1-butanol (2:1) systems as a case study for the investigation of microemulsions. The concentration of the surfactant/cosurfactant mixture was kept constant while the

The skin permeation enhancement of many kinds of drugs and cosmetic substances by microemulsions has been widely known; however, the correlations between microemulsion microstructures and the efficiency of skin permeation are not fully elucidated. Therefore, the aim of our study

The microstructure of organogels formed upon the addition of tiny amounts of water to a solution of lecithin in fatty acid esters (viz. isopropylpalmitate and ethyloleate) was investigated by means of molecular self-diffusion measurements. In both systems lecithin and water
