Résumé : |
Due to the reduction of the ozone layer, there is an increasing need of effective UV protection systems with minimised side-effects. Trans-2-ethylhexyl-p-methoxycinnamate (trans-EHMC) represents one of the most widely used sunscreen compound. Several studies demonstrated that trans-EHMC is unstable following UV irradiation both in solution and in emulsion formulations. Moreover, various reports of photocontact sensitization induced by trans-EHMC have appeared in the literature. Consequently, in order to ensure adequate efficacy and safety for this sunscreen agent, there is a need for new carrier systems to enhance trans-EHMC photostability. In the present study the photostability of the filter in different formulation types (emulsion-gel, gel and emulsion) with various ingredients is evaluated. In addition, nanoparticles based on poly-D,L-lactide-co-glycolide (PLGA) as carrier for trans-EHMC are investigated. The influence of nanoparticle matrix on the photochemical stability of the sunscreen agent is also presented. The results obtained demonstrated that PLGA nanoparticles are effective in reducing the light-induced degradation of the sunscreen agent. Moreover, the choice of formulation type and the excipients used play an important role in order to obtain a stable cosmetic product containing trans-EHMC. |
