A novel, simple, validated stability indicating HPLC method was developed for determination of Koptrizon and Tinosorb S. Stability indicating power of the method was established by forced degradation study. The chromatographic separation was achieved with Waters X Bridge C18 column, by using mobile phase consisting of a mixture of acetonitrile : tetrahydrofuran : water (38 : 38 : 24, v/v/v). The method fulfilled validation criteria and was shown to be sensitive, with limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation −1 −1 (LOQ) of 0.024 and 0.08 gmL for Koptrizon and 0.048 and 0.16 gmL for Tinosorb S, respectively. The developed method is validated for parameters like precision, accuracy, linearity, solution stability, specificity, and ruggedness as per ICH norms.

The aim of this study is to assess the toxicity of benzophenone-3 (BP-3), bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT), butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane (BM), methylene bis- benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol (MBBT), 2-Ethylhexyl salicylate (ES), diethylaminohydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate (DHHB), diethylhexyl butamido triazone (DBT), ethylhexyl triazone (ET), homosalate (HS), and octocrylene (OC) to marine organisms from two major trophic levels including autotrophs (Tetraselmis sp.) and heterotrophs (Artemia salina). In general, EC50 results show that both HS and OC are the most toxic for our tested species, followed by a significant effect of BM on Artemia salina but only at high concentrations (1 mg/L) and then an effect of ES, BP3 and DHHB on the metabolic activity of the microalgae at 100 µg/L.

  • Cutaneous Permeation and Penetration of Sunscreens: Formulation Strategies and in Vitro Methods
    cosmetics Review Cutaneous Permeation and Penetration of Sunscreens: Formulation Strategies and In Vitro Methods Silvia Tampucci * ID , Susi Burgalassi ID , Patrizia Chetoni ID and Daniela Monti ID Department of Pharmacy, University of Pisa, 56126 Pisa, Italy; [email protected] (S.B.); [email protected] (P.C.); [email protected] (D.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 November 2017; Accepted: 7 December 2017; Published: 25 December 2017 Abstract: Sunscreens are the most common products used for skin protection against the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. However, as frequent application is recommended, the use of large amount of sunscreens could reflect in possible systemic absorption and since these preparations are often applied on large skin areas, even low penetration rates can cause a significant amount of sunscreen to enter the body. An ideal sunscreen should have a high substantivity and should neither penetrate the viable epidermis, the dermis and the systemic circulation, nor in hair follicle. The research of methods to assess the degree of penetration of solar filters into the skin is nowadays even more important than in the past, due to the widespread use of nanomaterials and the new discoveries in cosmetic formulation technology. In the present paper, different in vitro studies, published in the last five years, have been reviewed, in order to focus the attention on the different methodological approaches employed to effectively assess the skin permeation and retention of sunscreens. Keywords: sunscreens; formulation; in vitro methods; cutaneous permeation; skin penetration 1. Introduction The detrimental effects of human exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation have been widely investigated and can be immediate, as in the case of sunburns, or long-term, causing, in most cases, the formation of oxidizing species responsible of photo-aging, immunosuppression and chronic effects such as photo carcinogenicity [1,2].

  • Spatio-Temporal Trends of the UV Filter 2-Ethylhexyl-4-Methoxycinnamate
    Nagorka and Dufek Environ Sci Eur (2021) 33:8 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12302-020-00448-w RESEARCH Open Access Under the infuence of regulations: spatio-temporal trends of the UV flter 2-Ethylhexyl-4-methoxycinnamate (EHMC) in German rivers Regine Nagorka* and Anja Dufek Abstract Background: Globally, 2-Ethylhexyl-4-methoxycinnamate (EHMC) is one of the most commonly used UV flters in sunscreen and personal care products. Due to its widespread usage, the occurrence of EHMC in the aquatic environ- ment has frequently been documented. In the EU, EHMC is listed under the European Community Rolling Action Plan (CoRAP) as suspected to be persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) and as a potential endocrine disruptor. It was included in the frst watch list under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) referring to a sediment PNEC of 200 µg/ kg dry weight (dw). In the light of the ongoing substance evaluation to refne the environmental risk assessment, the objective of this study was to obtain spatio-temporal trends for EHMC in freshwater. We analyzed samples of suspended particulate matter (SPM) retrieved from the German environmental specimen bank (ESB). The samples covered 13 sampling sites from major German rivers, including Rhine, Elbe, and Danube, and have been collected since mid-2000s. Results: Our results show decreasing concentrations of EHMC in annual SPM samples during the studied period. In the mid-2000s, the levels for EHMC ranged between 3.3 and 72 ng/g dw. The highest burden could be found in the Rhine tributary Saar. In 2017, we observed a maximum concentration ten times lower (7.9 ng/g dw in samples from the Saar).

This method is not so ethical as healthy volunteers are irradiated, and can be replaced by an in vitro method which is easy and quick to perform. The objective of this work was to correlate the experimental device proposed by Choquenet et al. and the dissolutest (Sotax® AT6). This equipment is used in the pharmaceutical industry to control the tablets. The experimental conditions have been fixed to correlate the results obtained with both methods. The stirring speed for the dissolutest was fixed at 75 rpm, which is the speed value recommended by the European Pharmacopeia to study the dissolution over time of tablets. 1.

An ultrasound–vortex-assisted dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (US–VA–DLLME) method with a high-performance liquid chromatography–diode array detector was used to analyze UV filters. A bio-derived solvent (i.e., anisole) was used as the extractant in the US–VA–DLLME procedure, along with methanol as the dispersant, a vortexing time of 4 min, and ultrasonication for 3 min.
