Characterization of stratum corneum molecular dynamics by natural-abundance ¹³C solid-state NMR.

Despite the enormous potential for pharmaceutical applications, there is still a lack of understanding of the molecular details that can contribute to increased permeability of the stratum corneum (SC). To investigate the influence of hydration and heating on the SC, we record the natural-abundance...
