## Abstract ## Background and Objectives (Pre)cancerous skin lesions accumulate more protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) upon topical application of 5βaminolevulinic acid (ALA) than the surrounding normal skin. This might be the result of a higher percutaneous penetration of ALA into (pre)cancerous skin. ##
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives ALA esters have been developed to improve PpIX production in ALAβPDT, but they do not perform as well in skin as they do in cells and the bladder. ## Study Design/Materials and Methods The in vitro penetration across normal mouse skin of ALA and its methy
