Study on in vitro percutaneous adsorption of Huayu Babu Sticking Plaster / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Object To research the effect of laurocapram upon the percutaneous absorption of Huayu Babu Sticking Plaster (HBSP) in vitro. Methods The improved Franz diffusing cells were chosen to study percutaneous absorption of piperine from HBSP. The content of permeated piperine was determined by HPLC; while the content of augenol was determined by GC to inspect the stability of HBSP. Results The result showed that the process of penetrating of piperine in HBSP through skin could be in accordance with zero-grade releasing equation and HBSP was stable during the course of experiment. Conclusion Laurocapram could promote percutaneous absorption of piperine.
