Hair follicles (HF) represent a drug delivery reservoir for improved treatment of skin disorders. Although various particulate systems play an important role in HF-targeting, their optical monitoring in skin is challenging due to strong light scattering. Optical clearing is an effective approach allowing the increasing of particle detection depth in skin. The enhancement of optical probing depth (OPD) and optical detection depth (ODD) of particle localization using optical coherence tomography (OCT) was evaluated under application of various optical clearing agents (OCAs) together with skin permeability enhancers ex vivo in rats. Efficient OPD increasing was demonstrated for all investigated OCAs. However, skin dehydration under action of hyperosmotic agents led to the worsening of OCT-contrast in dermis decreasing the ODD. Lipophilic agents provided optical clearing of epidermis without its dehydration. The highest ODD was obtained at application of a PEG-400/oleic acid mixture. This OCA was tested in vivo showing beneficial ODD and OPD enhancement.
