(2010-09-01)Thioglycolic acid (TA) and urea hydrogen peroxide (urea H2O2) are thought to disrupt alpha-keratin disulfide links in the nail However, optimal clinical use of these agents to improve the treatment of nail disorders is ... -
Overcoming the nail barrier : A systematic investigation of ungual chemical penetration enhancement
Brown, Marc; Khengar, Rajeshree H.; Turner, Rob B.; Forbes, B.; Traynor, M.J.; Evans, C.R.G.; Jones, S. A. (2009-03-31)This study investigated the in vitro nail permeability of penetrants of varying lipophilicity—caffeine (CF, log P −0.07), methylparaben (MP, log P 1.96) and terbinafine (TBF, log P 3.3) and the effect of 2 novel penetration ...
