Mechanical Properties of the Human Stratum Corneum: Hydration Effects on Graded Delamination of Human Stratum Corneum
Reinhold Dauskardt Stanford University, Professor Materials Sciences and Engineering The stratum corneum (SC) is the outermost layer of the skin. Its process of reneweal is regulated by various mechanisms, including chemical and structural gradients through the SC thickness. In this study, an in vitro mechanics approach for studying the delamination behavior of SC in the direction perpendicular...
متن کاملAutofluorescence characteristics of healthy oral mucosa at different anatomical sites.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Autofluorescence spectroscopy is a promising tool for oral cancer detection. Its reliability might be improved by using a reference database of spectra from healthy mucosa. We investigated the influence of anatomical location on healthy mucosa autofluorescence. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS Spectra were recorded from 97 volunteers using seven excitation waveleng...
متن کاملSorption properties of the human stratum corneum.
Water sorption is important for the overall structure and function of keratinized tissues such as the human epidermal stratum corneum (SC). In this study we report on a gravimetric method for studying sorption properties of human SC, both from heel and female breast skin. Changes in mass were measured as the relative humidity was altered in steps under controlled environmental conditions. The p...
متن کاملResistance to Water Diffusion in the Stratum Corneum Is Depth-Dependent
The stratum corneum (SC) provides a permeability barrier that limits the inflow and outflow of water. The permeability barrier is continuously and dynamically formed, maintained, and degraded along the depth, from the bottom to the top, of the SC. Naturally, its functioning and structure also change dynamically in a depth-dependent manner. While transepidermal water loss is typically used to as...
متن کاملOpto-thermal technique for in-vivo stratum corneum hydration measurement
A new method for measuring stratum corneum hydration in-vivo, using opto-thermal transient emission radiometry with 2.94pm Er:YAG excitation and wavelength selective detection, is described. Results on skin recovery following exogenous hydration, skin stripping with Sellotape and wound healing are presented.
