Skin lipids are a major constituent of the epidermal barrier, impermeable to a great extent to many chemicals. The barrier cspacity of the skin must be diminished by its delipidization through extract of the fatty material. The objectives of this study were to determine the degree that lipids and proteins contribute to the binding of straturn corneum in percutaneous penetration of hydrocortisone following skin delipidization. The binding capacity of C-hydrocortisone partitioned to powdered stratum corneum without delipidization in 10 human subjects was 1,554.34+/-357.48 dpm, and when delipidization, was 2,234.68+/-761.12 dpm. The partitioning rate was 0.38% in powdered stratum corneum without delipidization in 10 subjects, and when with ddipidization, was 0.55%. The result that the binding capacity of hydrocortisone to stratum corneum with delipidization increased more than without delipidization are statistically significant (p<0.05).

10.Exploring Subjective Stress, Sleep and Diurnal Variation of Salivary Cortisol in Korean Female Adults.
Journal of Korean Biological Nursing Science 2016;18(1):9-16
PURPOSE: The purpose of this exploratory study was to find a specific time of day with a stable cortisol level and to investigate the relationship between salivary cortisol and sleep. METHODS: A total of 36 Korean female college students participated in the study. Salivary specimens were collected 6 times a day for 2 days in different stressful situations. Sleep characteristics were measured using an actigraph while salivary specimens were collected. Perceived stress was evaluated using the Global Assessment of Recent Stress. RESULTS: Depending on whether there were morning peak and/or afternoon elevations in the cortisol levels, the type of diurnal cortisol pattern was classified into 4 types. None of the cortisol levels in different times of the day showed significant relationships to perceived stress levels. Cortisol levels in the morning, levels of peak cortisol and diurnal differences of cortisol were significantly correlated with sleep duration. The time with most stable cortisol level was 9-10 pm. CONCLUSION: It is recommended that measurements of salivary cortisol are taken from 9-10 pm since it showed a stable value regardless of diurnal cortisol rhythm and sleep. Sleep duration should be considered as an important confounding factor in measuring cortisol levels in the morning and the diurnal differences of cortisol.
