Abstract
Absorption properties of Indocyanine Green (ICG) dissolved in both water and 40%-ethanol for potential using in laser selective thermolysis have been researched. Correlation between magnitudes and positions of absorption bands of ICG in dependence on the kind of solvent and concentration of ICG has been studied. Interaction between ICG solutions and rat skin in vitro has been investigated. Shift of the main absorption peaks of ICG solutions in skin has been defined. Such shift is caused by ICG interaction with protein molecules of the stratum corneum and dermis. Diffusion coefficients of ICG in skin have been estimated at diffusion of aqueous solutions through dermis and at diffusion of alcohol solutions through both dermis and epidermis as (7.70±2.51)×10-7, (18.79±3.35)×10-7 and (6.85±3.75)×10-7, respectively.
