Skin (percutaneous, dermal) absorption is the transport of chemicals from the outer surface of the skin both into the skin and into circulation. Skin absorption relates to the degree of exposure to and possible effect of a substance which may enter the body through the skin. Human skin comes into contact with many agents intentionally and ...
Skin depth depends on the frequency of the alternating current; as frequency increases, current flow becomes more concentrated near the surface, resulting in less skin depth. Skin effect reduces the effective cross-section of the conductor and thus increases its effective resistance. At 60 Hz in copper, skin depth is about 8.5 mm. At high ...
Although absorption is rather low in this spectral range, it still contributes to the overall attenuation of tissue. Figure 3: The molar extinction coefficients of eumelanin and pheomelanin. [5] Other tissue components with less significant contributions to the total absorption spectrum of tissue are melanin and fat.

Skin absorption (dermal absorption), for example, is to directly deliver drug to the skin and, hopefully, to the systemic circulation. [34] However, skin irritation may result, and for some forms such as creams or lotions, the dosage is difficult to control. [ 26 ]
A new study used 3D human skin-equivalent models to examine how flame retardant additives in microplastics are absorbed by the skin. The findings show that several flame-retardant additives passed ...
The amount of topical drug molecules being delivered to the skin is affected solely by the physicochemical properties of the topical drug. [1] The first factor is the weight of the drug molecule. The smaller of the drug molecular weight or particle size, the higher rate of its diffusion and absorption into the skin.
