skin absorption studies

Skin absorption studies evaluate how substances like medicines or chemicals pass through the skin into the bloodstream. These studies help determine if a product is safe and effective by measuring how much of the substance penetrates the skin over time. This information is important for designing topical treatments, ensuring they deliver the right amount of active ingredients without causing harm. The process typically involves applying the substance to skin samples or volunteers and analyzing blood or tissue samples to track absorption levels. Overall, these studies ensure that topical products are both safe and effective for intended use.
