...Ben Wang; Ling-Ling Liu; Zuo-Tao Zhao; Ping Tu Aim: To investigate whether the skin barrier function is impaired with regard to the pH value, water content, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and the integrity of the stratum corneum, and whether the expression of caspase-14 is altered in moderate...

... by no intervention. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL), stratum corneum hydration (SCH), skin pH and sebum were measured <48 h after birth and on postnatal days 5, 11 and 21 on the forehead, abdomen, thigh and buttock. Results: Skin pH decreased, while sebum remained stable in both groups. In group C, TEWL remained...

...J.C. Guillaume; J. De Rigal; J.L. Levèque; P. Galle; R. Touraine; L. Dubertret Modifications of transepidermal water loss due to repeated topical applications of water/oil emulsion, salicylic acid and urea, with and without occlusion, were studied on the forearms of healthy volunteers. Percutaneous...

...C. Lafille; A. Barbier; J. Girard Comparative study of experimental and theoretical curves obtained by plotting transepidermal water loss against stratum corneum thickness in man, shows that every layer in the stratum corneum acts as part of the epidermal barrier to water loss. Another function...

... and measurements of transepidermal water loss. In addition, infrared-spectroscopic investigations were made using a Frustrated Multiple Internal Reflection device on unstripped skin, then on the same skin area after five and ten strippings with adhesive tape. The tests showed (except for the measurements...

...Peter Eisner; Dorothea Wilhelm; Howard I. Maibach The dynamic friction coefficient between skin and a Teflon probe and its correlation with age, body weight, height, transepidermal water loss and skin capacitance was studied in vulvar and forearm skin of 44 healthy female volunteers. The friction...

... during a 45-second period of time; AUC C ). For comparative purposes, we also measured transepidermal water loss (TEWL). Both skin function parameters were established for each individual skin site before and 24 h after removal of SLS patches (10, 5, 1 and 0% control solution under occlusion for 48 h...

... and transepidermal water loss. Morphological changes such as increased skin roughness pigmentation and alteration of skin surface pattern appearing from the age of 30 years onwards may be investigated at a subclinical level allowing the detection of early signs of aging. 19 04 1990 29 06 1990 8 10...

...E. Berardesca; J. de Rigal; J.L. Leveque; H.I. Maibach The role of race in modulating skin responses has been investigated. Several parameters (skin thickness, transepidermal water loss, water content of the stratum corneum and skin biomechanics) have been measured using noninvasive tools in whites...

... the body. The following parameters have been investigated before and immediately after a hemodialysis session: body weight, skin elasticity and distensibility, skin hydration, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and skin thickness. A significant decrease was recorded after treatment in body weight, skin...

...J.J. Lévy; J. von Rosen; J. Gaßmüller; R. Kleine Kuhlmann; L. Lange Background: Non-invasive assessment methods such as measurement of the transepidermal water loss (TEWL) allow a continuous follow-up of cutaneous processes with impairment of the epidermal barrier function. Objective: The aim...

...; 15 only on dietary regimen served as controls. Efficiency of stratum corneum water barrier was evaluated by transepidermal water loss (TEWL) measurement using an evaporimeter; water-holding capacity of the stratum corneum was assessed by the sorption-desorption test measured by capacitance...
