Percutaneous AbsorptionPercutaneous Absorption Transdermal absorption/percutaneous
absorption Toxicants pass through the cell layers before
entering the small blood and lymph capillaries in the dermis
A complex event with many key factors relating to the physical, chemical, and biochemical constitution of the skin overlaid with the vast range of physicochemical behavior of the penetrant

Pharmaceutical ResearchPharmaceutical Research
Local or systemic pharmacological response using dermally applied drugs
Current research is divided– restraint (slow release technology) and
– enhancement (occlusion, permeation enhancers)
04/20/23
Occupational and Environmental Occupational and Environmental ExposuresExposures
Accidental or deliberate (chemical warfare)– commercial and home and garden pesticides
– polymer and paint chemicals
– detergents and cleaning chemicals
– a broad range of heavy industrial chemicals
– unscheduled exposures to environmental accidents and
– mishandling of toxic waste disposal
04/20/23
Percutaneous AbsorptionPercutaneous Absorption Dermal absorption prevalent for any
compound, with the exemption of highly volatile chemicals
Research is directed towards understanding transdermal flux rates and the toxicological consequences of penetration
At the practical end, such data contribute to risk assessment

Factors Affecting Percutaneous Absorption
Biological– skin age– skin condition– anatomical site– skin metabolism– circulatory effects
Physicochemical– hydration– drug-skin binding– temperature
Physical– drug concentration– surface area– exposure time– occlusion– vehicle

Mechanisms of Percutaneous Absorption
Mechanisms by which chemicals cause visible effects on the skin differ from chemical to chemical– disruption of lipids and membranes
– protein denaturation
– keratolysis
– cytotoxicity
04/20/23
Mechanisms of Percutaneous Absorption
The rate-determining barrier is Stratum Corneum (nonviable epidermis), which is densely packed keratinized cells (nuclei lost, biologically inactive)
SC contains 75-80% lipophilic materials– very little triglycerids (0%)
– cholesterol (27%)
– cholesterol esters (10%)
– various ceramides (41%; amides and/or esters of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids)

Mechanisms of Percutaneous Absorption
Appendageal transport– a negligible contribution to the overall
percutaneous flux across human skin
– however, transport through the appendageal route has been shown to be significant during the initial (non-steady-state) period of percutaneous absorption
– remains controversial; question of the participation of the hair follicles in percutaneous absorption
04/20/23
Mechanisms of Percutaneous Absorption
Permeation pathways– Polar (hydrophilic)
Path through corneocytes with their desmosomal connections
– Nonpolar (lipophilic) Agents dissolve in and diffuse through the lipid matrix
between the protein filaments Regional variations in skin permeability are
correlated with quantitative differences in lipid content rather than SC thickness or cell number
04/20/23
Percutaneous Transport
Molecules traverse membranes either by– passive diffusion
solute flux is linearly dependent on the solute concentration gradient
– active transport typically involves a saturable mechanism
Percutaneous flux is directly proportional to the concentration gradient and, therefore, transport across the skin occurs primarily by passive diffusion
04/20/23
Percutaneous Transport
At steady state, the flux due to passive diffusion may be described by Fick’s 1st law
J = kp a
J = flux of the permeant (moles/cm2s) kp = permeability coefficient of the permeant through the
membrane (cm/s) ∆a = activity gradient across the membrane (moles/cm3)
04/20/23
Percutaneous Transport
kp is the inverse of the “resistance”, which the membrane offers to solute transport, and is defined by
kp = KD / h
K = membrane-aqueous phase partition coefficient of
the solute D = diffusion coefficient of the solute in the membrane
(cm2/s) h = diffusion path length through the membrane
04/20/23
Percutaneous Transport
The flux rate is a rate process Rate = Driving Force / Resistance
Driving force for diffusion is the activity gradient (concentration gradient across the permeability barrier)
Molecular flux across the membrane can be determined by the solute’s size and lipophilicity if the driving force remains the same
Octanol/Water partition coefficient (Ko/w) has been chosen to be used as the index of lipophilicity

Summary of FindingsSummary of Findings In vivo studies may be used to make reasonable predictions
of dermal absorption and penetration of JP-8 components in humans
Human permeability coefficients are 10-fold lower than estimates made in vivo; however, there is a wide range of Kp values among study volunteers
A two-compartment model of the skin best describes the toxicokinetic behavior of dermal exposure to aromatic and aliphatic components of JP-8
Dermal exposure to JP-8 contributes significantly to urinary 2-naphthol but not to 1-naphthol levels among the fuel-cell maintenance workers
Dermal exposures may contribute up to 35% of the internal dose of naphthalene
