Description

General description

N-Lauroylsarcosine (N-Dodecanoyl-N-methylglycine, Sarkosyl L, LS) is an anionic surfactant. Its microbicidal action against herpes simplex type 2 (HSV-2) intravaginal infection in a murine model has been investigated.

Application

N-Lauroylsarcosine may be used as a permeation enhancer in the transdermal drug delivery formulations since it increases the fluidity of stratum corneum lipid structure of the skin†
