A fundamental investigation into aspects of the physiology and biochemistry of the stratum corneum in subjects with sensitive skin

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2017
Sensitive skin is a poorly understood skin condition. Defects in stratum corneum (SC) barrier function and/or extrasensory neuronal networks in the epidermis are believed to be involved in the problem.

Mathematical Modelling of Chemical Diffusion through Skin using Grid-based PSEs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A Problem Solving Environment (PSE) with connections to remote distributed Grid processes is developed. The Grid simulation is itself a parallel process and allows steering of individual or multiple runs of the core computation of chemical diffusion ...

Contact and frictional properties of stratum corneum of human skin

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2015
Most skin tribology studies gave attention on the examination of frictional properties of normal and healthy skin surfaces. This study aims to investigate the frictional and mechanical properties of skin under different load and friction conditions after

Recent Advances on Topical Application of Ceramides to Restore Barrier Function of Skin

open access: yesCosmetics, 2019
Human skin is the largest organ of the body and is an effective physical barrier keeping it from environmental conditions. This barrier function of the skin is based on stratum corneum, located in the uppermost skin.

Ceramides in the skin barrier

open access: yesEuropean Pharmaceutical Journal, 2017
The skin barrier, which is essential for human survival on dry land, is located in the uppermost skin layer, the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum consists of corneocytes surrounded by multilamellar lipid membranes that prevent excessive water loss ...

Lipid organization in pig stratum corneum.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
The lipid and keratin structure of pig stratum corneum has been elucidated by small- and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. The measurements were carried out as a function of hydration and temperature.
