Effect of PEG400 Concentration in Receiving Solution on Drug Transdermal Test in Vitro
To investigate the effect of varying concentrations of polyethylene glycol(PEG)400 in receiving solution on
in vitro
transdermal test of drugs.
Method:
2
5-Fluorouracil(5-FU) was selected as a model drug
by preparing different concentrations of PEG400-phosphate buffer solution(PBS) as the receiving solution
the receiving chamber did not add drug
the excised rat skins were treated with various additives for 12 h
then replaced by PBS and added the saturated model drug into the donor compartment to determine the transdermal parameters of the drug.Meanwhile
scanning electron microscopy(SEM) was employed to monitor the effect of PEG400 with different concentration on the stratum corneum of rat skin.
Result:
2
The 10%
15% and 40%PEG400-PBS groups had no significant effect on
in vitro
transdermal absorption parameters of the 5-FU.The steady transdermal rate and cumulative penetration rate of the drug in 20% and 30% PEG400-PBS groups were significantly higher than that in the PBS group(
P
<
0.01
P
<
0.05). SEM indicated that wrinkle of the intact rat skin gradually disappeared and a number of flakes were desquamated from the skin when the concentration of PEG400 was above 20% in receiving solution.Meanwhile
30% PEG400-PBS group and 40% PEG400-PBS group were extremely wrinkled.
Conclusion:
2
In the rat skin transdermal test
the concentration of PEG400 in receiving solution should be controlled below 20%.
