Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) reflects skin barrier function of dog.
The correlation between skin barrier function and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was evaluated in dogs. Stratum corneum (SC) of 10 healthy dogs was removed by tape stripping (TS), which decreased the corneal layer to allow for permeation of fluorescent dye into skin. TEWL of damaged skin was measured with the closed-chamber-type TEWL analyzer, CC-01. The frequency of TS was directly related t...
متن کاملNewborn transepidermal water loss values: a reference dataset.
Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is a simple noninvasive measurement of inside-out skin barrier function. The goal of this research was to establish normal values for TEWL in early life using data gathered from the Cork BASELINE Birth Cohort Study. TEWL was recorded in a standardized fashion using a well-validated open-chamber system. A mean of three readings was recorded from 1,036 neonates (3...
متن کاملDiabetic and sympathetic influences on the water permeability barrier function of human skin as measured using transepidermal water loss
The presence of long-standing hyperglycemic conditions has been suggested to lead to many skin problems associated with an impaired skin barrier function. However, the relationship between impaired skin barrier status and altered peripheral nervous system function has not yet been determined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the water evaporation rate as a measure of the permeabilit...
متن کاملA new method of measuring the transepidermal water loss (TEWL) of dog skin.
Human skin barrier function is evaluated by measuring transepidermal water loss (TEWL). However, this conventional method has not been applied to assess canine skin barrier function because the equipment is not suitable for dogs due to the effects of air turbulence resulting from movement of the subject and vapor from the subject's hair coat. The TEWL analyzer CC-01 was developed as a closed-ch...
متن کاملComparison of the Effect of Skin Preparation Pads on Transepidermal Water Loss in Ex Vivo Human Skin
INTRODUCTION Pre-treatment of the skin to remove scales and crusts prior to photodynamic therapy (PDT) is essential to enhance the uptake of topically applied methyl aminolevulinate (MAL) and to improve treatment efficacy. This study compared the effect of two different skin preparation pads on skin integrity in ex vivo human skin. METHODS Ex vivo human skin samples from three donors were pre...
