Topical peptide delivery for cosmetic and therapeutic benefits (2008-2009)
Abstract
This project aims to define rules governing the delivery of peptides (especially those derived from milk) to the different layers of the epidermis using different formulations and certain delivery devices. The Significance of the work is that, although milk has been acknowledged as a good nutrient and is used in skin care formulations, a systematic study of the benefits of milk on the skin has not been carried out. This project will define the distribution patterns of milk peptides in terms of both the properties of the peptides and the delivery systems used. '',
