β-2-himachalen-6-ol protects against skin cancer development in vitro and in vivo by Daaboul, Hamid E.

“…Background Previous studies in our laboratory showed that Daucus carota oil extract (DCOE) possesses remarkable in-vitro anticancer activity and antitumour promoting effect against DMBA/TPA skin carcinogenesis in mice. Chemical analysis of DCOE led to the isolation of the β-2-himachalen-6-ol (HC), major sesquiterpene with a potent anticancer activity against various colon, breast, brain and skin cancer cells. …”

Influence of physicochemical properties on the in vitro skin permeation of the enantiomers, racemate, and eutectics of ibuprofen for enhanced transdermal drug delivery by Capomacchia, Anthony C.

“…Physicochemical properties of chiral ibuprofen are significant to formulation scientists because its enantiomers and eutectics possess lower melting points than its racemate. The influence of these properties on transdermal formulation development, especially the relative effect of lowered melting point, on skin permeation must be carefully assessed to provide the most efficacious formulation. …”
