Todo, H., Tamura, M., Uchida, T., Kurumada, M., Motoki, A., Sano, T., ... & Sugibayashi, K. (2018). Prediction of skin permeation of flurbiprofen from neat ester oils and their o/w emulsions. Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 66(10), 959-966.

Abstract.. In the present study, the cumulative amount of a model lipophilic drug, flurbiprofen (FP), that permeated through skin was determined from 12 different kinds of ester oils (Qoil) and an in silico model was developed for predicting the skin permeation of FP from these ester oils.

Kaide, A., Saeki, T., Sakanishi, Y., & Nakamura, R. (2018). Rheological properties and self-assembled structures of a newly synthesized organogelator: cyclohexane carboxamido-2C8/oleyl in different solvent oils. Rheologica Acta, 57(10), 681-690.

Abstract. We synthesized a low-molecular-mass organogelator, cyclohexanecarboxamide (HPMDA-R), which is composed of four amide groups with two kinds of side chains (R and R′). We selected two different alkyl groups, 2-ethylhexyl and oleyl, as side chains, considering the solubility and formation of a self-assembled structure within the solvents.

Musazzi, U. M., Franzè, S., Minghetti, P., & Casiraghi, A. (2018). Emulsion versus nanoemulsion: how much is the formulative shift critical for a cosmetic product?. Drug delivery and translational research, 8(2), 414-421.

Abstract. The aim of this work was the evaluation of how an oil-in-water (O/W) nanoemulsion can influence the in vitro skin permeation profiles of two model active ingredients with different polarity (i.e., caffeine and ethyl ximenynate).

Guglielmini, G. (2008). Nanostructured novel carrier for topical application. Clinics in dermatology, 26(4), 341-346.

Abstract. Nanoemulsions have attracted considerable attention in recent years for application in personal care products as potential vehicles for the controlled delivery of cosmetics and the optimized dispersion of active ingredients in particular skin layers.

Dobler, D., Schmidts, T., Zinecker, C., Schlupp, P., Schäfer, J., & Runkel, F. (2016). Hydrophilic ionic liquids as ingredients of gel-based dermal formulations. AAPS PharmSciTech, 17(4), 923-931.

Abstract. In the present work, SEPINEO™ P 600 formulations and hydroxyethylcellulose gels containing the hydrophilic ILs hexylpyridinium chloride, choline dihydrogen phosphate, and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate were prepared, and the influence of the ILs on the formulation properties was evaluated.

Montiel, M. C., Máximo, F., Serrano‐Arnaldos, M., Ortega‐Requena, S., Murcia, M. D., & Bastida, J. (2019). Biocatalytic solutions to cyclomethicones problem in cosmetics. Engineering in Life Sciences, 19(5), 370-388.

Abstract.  Different cosmetic companies began to look for different alternatives to cyclomethicones, mainly: organomodified silicones or esters.

Hori, N., Fujii, M., Ikegami, K., MOMOSE, D. I., SAITO, N., & MATSUMOTO, M. (1999). Effect of UV-absorbing agents on photodegradation of tranilast in oily gels. Chemical and pharmaceutical bulletin, 47(12), 1713-1716.

Abstract. Tranilast (TL) oily gels containing UV-absorbing agents (UV absorber) were prepared, and the effect of the agents against photodegradation of TL was investigated
