Effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids on mitigation of the side effects of isotretionin treatment for patients with acne vulgaris: a narrative review by Agnieszka Kaźmierska, Izabela Anna Bolesławska, Juliusz Przysławski

“…This is especially true for gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), which in acne patients treated with isotretinoin, in addition to reducing acne lesions and papules, results in a smaller decrease in skin hydration and an increase in transepidermal water loss (TEWL). The purpose of this study was to review current literature on the effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids on the course of skin diseases, especially the alleviation of side effects of isotretinoin treatment for patients with acne vulgaris. …”

Modeling of dissolution phenomena in Cu-Cl Cycle for hydrogen production by Öznur Kayhan, Ibrahim Dincer

“…The dissolution process of cuprous chloride (CuCl) in aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCl(aq)) is one of the crucial intermediary steps in the thermochemical water splitting cycle to produce hydrogen. A mass transfer model for dissolution process presented in this paper has been developed based on Noyes Whitney equation which is dependent on concentration gradient across the boundary layer and solute's remaining surface area. …”
