In this paper, a 0.18,um CMOS color processing detection scheme based on NPNP-triple-junction structure is scheme based on NPNP-triple-junction structure is proposed proposed and characterized through electrical measurements to achieve real-time skin detection. The need for building on a test chip fabricated using CMOS 0. 18MTm technology. The complex demosaicing circuitry is completely elimina...

We have developed self-assembled copper (Cu) micro-labyrinth (ML) with graphene skin for transparent flexible electrodes of optoelectronic devices. The Cu ML is simply formed by heating a thin Cu film with a 100-nm thickness on a SiO₂/Si substrate at 950 °C under hydrogen ambient to block the oxidation. Moreover, the Cu ML can have graphene skin at the surface by inserting carbo-hydroxyl molecu...

BACKGROUND Micro-needle patches have been recently used to increase skin permeability, which improves drug delivery, and for cosmetic purposes. However, these patches may often have limited efficacy due to insufficient skin penetration and reduced compliance caused by discomfort. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the efficacy and the safety of soluble micro-spicule containing epidermal growth factor (MS...

Chemoprevention by naturally occurring agents is a newer dimension in the management of neoplasia, including skin cancer. Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the major cause of skin cancer. We recently demonstrated that resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene), a polyphenolic antioxidant found in grapes and red wine, imparts protection from UVB-mediated cutaneous damages in SKH-1 hairless mice. ...

Objective The standard of hygiene in daily life and hospitals can be increased by the use of new antimicrobial fibers, which diminish the danger of pathogenic bacteria. In this study, the antimicrobial effect of special fibers on some staphylococcus isolates was investigated. Materials and Methods The antimicrobial effect of special type of fibers produced in Isfahan Poly Acryl Plant on thre...

Skin acts as a natural barrier between internal and external environments thus plays an important role in vital biological functions such as protection against mechanical/chemical damages, micro-organisms, ultraviolet damage. Nutrition has a critical impact on strengthening skin's capabilities to fight against these multiple aggressions.Nutritional deficiencies are often associated with skin he...

This paper describes a comparative investigation into the impact penetration characteristics of DNA-coated gold micro-particles into human and porcine skin. This work is aimed at establishing the link between the particle parameters required in delivering particles to the epidermis of pigs and humans. The particles are delivered to the skin using the PowderJect concept: a method that accelerate...
