Saponins belong to biosurfactants - surface active compounds produced by living organisms. In addition to surface activity, saponins display important biological activity due to their ability to reduce surface tension or create foams. Previous studies have shown that biological activity of saponins is associated with the fluidization of lipids that make up cell membranes Consequently, saponins can even boost the effect of vaccines (adjuvant actiivity). The research area covers investigations towards the use of saponins as penetration enhancers for nutrients and medicinal substances through the skin. For this purpose, research will be carried out on the influence of saponins with different chemical structures on monolayers containing lipids and proteins that reflect the composition of the outer layers of the skin and model cells.
