Beskrivning

Discussing existing techniques, ongoing research, new approaches, and basic concepts in the treatment of nail diseases, Topical Nail Products and Ungual Drug Delivery summarizes the current knowledge and represents a jumping-off point for creating novel techniques of drug delivery across the nail.A growing area of pharmaceutical research, the search for efficient delivery techniques that can cross the nail barrier has yielded several effective strategies, brought together in this book.Topics Include Nail anatomy, physiology, diseases, and treatmentPermeability of the nail plateTopical nail formulationsApproaches to enhance ungual and trans-ungual drug deliveryIn vitro and in vivo models to evaluate topical nail formulationsNail sampling techniquesBioengineering of the nailTrans-ungual iontophoresisPharmacokinetics of drugs in the nail apparatusOnychopharmacokinetics: proposed model insightPhotodynamic therapy of nail diseasesThe nail as a surrogate for investigating drug use
