    Abstract : The human skin is the largest and most complex body organ but accessible and attractive for biomarker sampling and transdermal drug delivery. The two procedures are significantly impacted by several biophysical properties of the skin, especially the pH and stratum corneum (SC)hydration. READ MORE

  4. 3. Effects of skin care ingredients on keratinocytes : - Interplay between osmotic stress, cell viability, and gene expression towards increased understanding of keratinocyte differentiation

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Author : Kassem Awad; [2021]
    Keywords : Cell viability; Keratinocytes; Osmotic stress; qPCR; Skin; Water activity;

    Abstract : The epidermis is composed of multiple cell strata where viable keratinocytes, in the basal layer (stratum basale (SB)), go through a range of steps with the final stage of being dead corneocytes in the outer most layer (stratum corneum (SC)). The differentiation, which can be thought of as programmed cell death, include several key processes that are essential for an intact skin barrier.

  5. 4. Skin barrier: Extraction and characterization of Stratum Corneum lipids

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Nicolas Velásquez González; [2018]
    Keywords : stratum corneum; skin barrier; lipids; physical chemistry; fysikalisk kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The structure and dynamics of isolated Stratum Corneum lipids in different temperatures and hydration conditions was investigated using natural abundance 13 C NMR and X-ray scattering. In order to isolate the lipids a new extraction method was tested. The novel aspect of this method was its ability to extract more lipids from SC. READ MORE
