Study on Percutaneous Absorption in vitro of 0.03%Tacrolimus Ointment / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To study the percutaneous absorption of 0.03% Tacrolimus ointment,and to compare the difference of domestic test preparation and imported reference preparation. METHODS:Modified Franz diffusion cells were adopted in trans-dermal test in vitro;HPLC-MS method was used to determine permeation amount and rate in vitro,delay time of domestic test preparation and imported reference preparation 0.03%Tacrolimus ointment. RESULTS:24 h in vitro permeation amount of test and reference preparations were(3 907±1 191)and(3 896±1 064)ng/cm2;permeation rates were 186.7 and 182.9 ng/(cm2·h);de-lay time were 1.95 and 2.00 h,respectively(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Test preparation shows good percutaneous property,and is similar to reference preparation in penetration absorbency through nude mice skin.
