“…In the hydrophilic surfactants category, Tween 80 was by far the most applied, followed by Kolliphor EL, with Tween 20 and Solutol HS15 also being used. All these surfactants have been proven to have the capacity to increase skin drug permeation and retention by potentially being able to increase the skin barrier lipids' fluidity and hence reduce the stratum corneum's barrier function, hence making them adequate for skin drug delivery [260][261][262][263]. In what concerns cosolvents/cosurfactants, Transcutol was the most utilized.…”

Topical and transdermal drug delivery are advantageous administration routes, especially when treating diseases and conditions with a skin etiology. Nevertheless, conventional dosage forms often lead to low therapeutic efficacy, safety issues, and patient noncompliance. To tackle these issues, novel topical and transdermal platforms involving nanotechnology have been developed. This review focuses on the latest advances regarding the development of nanoemulgels for skin application, encapsulating a wide variety of molecules, including already marketed drugs (miconazole, ketoconazole, fusidic acid, imiquimod, meloxicam), repurposed marketed drugs (atorvastatin, omeprazole, leflunomide), natural-derived compounds (eucalyptol, naringenin, thymoquinone, curcumin, chrysin, brucine, capsaicin), and other synthetic molecules (ebselen, tocotrienols, retinyl palmitate), for wound healing, skin and skin appendage infections, skin inflammatory diseases, skin cancer, neuropathy, or anti-aging purposes. Developed formulations revealed adequate droplet size, PDI, viscosity, spreadability, pH, stability, drug release, and drug permeation and/or retention capacity, having more advantageous characteristics than current marketed formulations. In vitro and/or in vivo studies established the safety and efficacy of the developed formulations, confirming their therapeutic potential, and making them promising platforms for the replacement of current therapies, or as possible adjuvant treatments, which might someday effectively reach the market to help fight highly incident skin or systemic diseases and conditions.

A prediction model for surface roughness was constructed using a neural network and atomic force microscopy. The silicon carbide etch process was characterized by a 2 5 full factorial experiment. The experimental ranges of process parameters were 600-900 W source power, 50-150 W bias power, 4 -16 mTorr pressure, 0-80% O 2 percentage, and 6 -12 cm gap. The model factors were optimized by means of a genetic algorithm. The optimized model had a root mean-squared error of 0.11 nm. From the model, various plots were predicted while being supported by actual measurements. The dc bias induced by each process parameter was correlated to the surface roughness. Increasing the bias power increased the surface roughness. In contrast, the surface roughness decreased as the dc bias was larger than about 600 V. The surface roughness was strongly correlated to the source power-induced dc bias only at low bias powers. The pressure effect was clear only as the dc bias was maintained at 480 V. For the variations in the O 2 percentage, the dc bias role was insignificant.

The effects of pressure on the surface roughness of silicon carbide (SiC) film were investigated with variations in other process parameters, including radio frequency source power, bias power, O2 fraction and gap. The SiC films were etched in a C2F6 inductively coupled plasma. The surface roughness, measured by atomic force microscopy, was examined in three particular situations: generated at minimum parameter level (case 1), at high source power (case 2); and at high bias power (case 3). For all variations in the process parameters except the O2 variation, smoother surfaces were observed at lower pressures in all cases. Both surface roughness and dc bias due to the pressure variation were highly correlated in case 1. In case 3, they were inversely related. It is noticeable that in cases 1 and 2 the surface roughness was little affected by the pressure, particularly at high bias power. This feature can be used not only for tight control of surface roughness, but for optimising other etch outputs.
