Three stepwise pH progressions in stratum corneum for homeostatic maintenance of the skin [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe stratum corneum is the outermost skin layer with a vital role in skin barrier function. It is comprised of dead keratinocytes (corneocytes) and is known to maintain its thickness by shedding cells, although, the precise mechanisms that safeguard ...

Influence of the sebaceous gland density on the stratum corneum lipidome [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 The skin surface lipids (SSL) result from the blending of sebaceous and epidermal lipids, which derive from the sebaceous gland (SG) secretion and the permeability barrier of the stratum corneum (SC), respectively.

Measurement of transepidermal water loss, stratum corneum hydration and skin surface pH in occupational settings: A review [PDF]
Skin research and technology, 2019 The skin provides a permeable barrier which may be impaired in occupational settings. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL), stratum corneum hydration (SCH) and skin surface pH (SSpH) have been used in occupational settings to predict early onset of ...

Stratum corneum dysfunction in dandruff [PDF]
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2012 SynopsisDandruff is characterized by a flaky, pruritic scalp and affects up to half the world’s population post‐puberty. The aetiology of dandruff is multifactorial, influenced by Malassezia, sebum production and individual susceptibility. The commensal yeast Malassezia is a strong contributory factor to dandruff formation, but the presence of ...

Clinical vs. chronological skin age: exploring determinants and stratum corneum protein markers of differential skin ageing in 351 healthy women [PDF]
Scientific ReportsApparent skin age can be determined by several clinical measurements and may differ from chronological age, hence defining age acceleration/deceleration (Age A/D).
