STATEMENT OF CONTRIBUTION
L.A.D.S D.G.A.D. conceived the study and oversaw the overall direction and planning. I.P.S.
carried out the experiments with the help of A.C.T.L., B.C.C.R., E.R.C., and L.M.S. for the
development and characterization of lipid carriers, the photostability study, thermal analysis,
and in vitro skin permeation, respectively. T.L.N. aided in interpreting the results and worked
on the manuscript. E.M.L. provided material and equipment support for the research.
