Penetration of Chlorhexidine into Human Skin [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2008
ABSTRACT This study evaluated a model of skin permeation to determine the depth of delivery of chlorhexidine into full-thickness excised human skin following topical application of 2% (wt/vol) aqueous chlorhexidine digluconate. Skin permeation studies were performed on full-thickness human skin using Franz diffusion cells with exposure to ...

The human skin microbiome [PDF]

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2018
Functioning as the exterior interface of the human body with the environment, skin acts as a physical barrier to prevent the invasion of foreign pathogens while providing a home to the commensal microbiota. The harsh physical landscape of skin, particularly the desiccated, nutrient-poor, acidic environment, also contributes to the adversity that ...

Photoaging of human skin [PDF]

Photodermatology, Photoimmunology & Photomedicine, 2000
Chronic sun exposure causes photoaging of human skin, a process that is characterized by clinical, histological and biochemical changes which differ from alterations in chronologically aged but sun‐protected skin. Within recent years, substantial progress has been made in unraveling the underlying mechanisms of photoaging.

Archaea on Human Skin

PLoS ONE, 2013
The recent era of exploring the human microbiome has provided valuable information on microbial inhabitants, beneficials and pathogens. Screening efforts based on DNA sequencing identified thousands of bacterial lineages associated with human skin but provided only incomplete and crude information on Archaea.

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) promotes wound re-epithelialisation in frog and human skin [PDF]

, 2013
There remains a critical need for new therapeutics that promote wound healing in patients suffering from chronic skin wounds. This is, in part, due to a shortage of simple, physiologically and clinically relevant test systems for investigating candidate ...
