Laurocapram
Laurocapram (Azone) is a widely used skin penetration enhancer that disrupts stratum corneum lipids to increase the permeability of hydrophilic compounds. It is frequently employed in transdermal drug delivery research, both in vitro and in vivo, to study and improve the absorption of therapeutic agents.
