NOTES

Nude mice (SKH-hr-1) Concentration added was given as2.6E-6M I have converted this to mg/ml for the purpose of this database. More experimental detail is available in Ackermann C et al. Int. J. Cosmet. Sci 7 (1985) 251-264. The experiement was actually conducted for 30 hours, but this permeability coefficient was calculated from the first 6 hours of the experiment
