R.; Morsink, Margreet; Batain, Fernando; Chaud, Marco V.; Almeida, Taline; Fernandes, Dayane A.; da Silva, Classius F.; Souto, Eliana B.Cosmetics composed of synthetic and/or semi-synthetic polymers, associated or not with natural polymers, exhibit a dashing design, with thermal and chemo-sensitive properties. Cosmetic polymers are also used for the preparation of nanoparticles for the delivery of, e.g., fragrances, with the purpose to modify their release profile and also reducing the risk of evaporation. Besides, other cosmetically active nut...
Development, cytotoxicity and eye irritation profile of a new sunscreen formula...
Barbosa, Thallysson Carvalho; Nascimento, Lívia Éven Dias; Bani, Cristiane; Almeida, Taline; Nery, Marcelo; Santos, Rafael SilvaThe objective of this work was to characterize the toxicological profile of a newly developed sunscreen formulation based on polymeric nanocapsules (NCs) loading benzophenone-3 (BZP3). NCs composed of poly(ε-caprolactone) carrot oil and Pluronic® F68 were produced by emulsification-diffusion method. Their mean particle size (Z-Ave) ranged from 280 to 420 nm, polydispersity index (PDI) was below 0.37, while zeta...
