Explaining skin permeation of 2-butoxyethanol from neat and aqueous solutions.

Absorption of 2-butoxyethanol (BE) from neat and aqueous solutions of BE was measured through rat skin in vitro and in vivo and through silicone membranes. Like previous studies in human and guinea pig skin, BE flux increased proportional to BE concentration only when the weight fraction of BE (w(BE)) View Article and Find Full Text PDF
