Abstract

Synopsis The percutaneous permeation of two oxidative hair dyes was measured by means of pig skin in a flow-through diffusion cell system entirely constructed from Teflon. Pig skin membranes were prepared by reducing full thickness skin with a dermatome to a more in vivo-like barrier layer and their integrity was checked by measuring the steady-state permeation of tritiated water. Initially, the inter- and intraindividual variability of percutaneous permeation was determined with an aqueous solution of 1-(2'-hydroxyethyl)-amino-3,4-methylenedioxybenzene-hydrochloride, an oxidative hair dye component. In the same way the proper flow rate of elution fluid through the receptor cell was found to be most favourable at 10 ml h(-1), the thickness of permeation membranes was fixed at 1 mm, and it was shown that storage of the skin at -20 degrees C for up to 35 days did not change the permeability. The percutaneous permeation of the same hair dye component and of 4-amino-2-hydroxymethylphenol-hydrochloride was determined after application to pig skin membranes under practical conditions of hair dyeing. The in vitro skin permeation was in the same order of magnitude as results from comparable in vivo skin absorption studies in rats.
