title: [Studies permeation of puerarin and its phospholipid complex through mouse skin in vitro].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the skin permeation of puerarin and its phospholipid complex and compare the differences between their permeation rates and cumulative permeation amounts.
  
  
  METHODS
  Performing a test of permeation through the mouse skin in vitro in an improved Franz diffusion cell.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The cumulative permeation amount of phospholipid complex was higher than that of puerarin in the first hour and then increased slowly, meanwhile the permeation rate of puerarin rose higher than that of the complex.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Phospholipid complex of puerarin can permeate through the mouse skin rapidly up to a certain amount in a short time, then begins to release drug slowly and lastingly.
