Purell as a carrier

[OnTheRoadTo]

62% Ethyl alcohol, doesn't dry out. Cheap. Just a thought.

So how low does molecular weight have to be to to be absorbed?

 

[OnTheRoadTo]

The general guideline is <300, but obviously other parameters (lipophilicity, polar charge, pKa) have an effect as well. Choice of carrier will make a difference (DMSO always helps, cyclodextrins help some molecules like DHEA quite a lot)

Huh?

You may get it to compund into soultions but without adequate and proper PE's you are probably going to waste your active.

Caffeine, at least, didn't get into solution.

I agree with the unbreakable one.

Hand sanitizers are not designed for absorption, topical sterilization.

Besides, there are somethings you do not want traveling through dermis e.g. fragrance.
