K S Ryatt et al.
The British journal of dermatology, 119(3), 307-312 (1988-09-01)
The effect of short duration occlusion on skin penetration and stratum corneum water content was studied in vivo in eight human subjects. Percutaneous absorption of hexyl nicotinate was monitored non-invasively by laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV) following each of three randomly
E Oestmann et al.
The British journal of dermatology, 128(2), 130-136 (1993-02-01)
This study assesses the variability of two non-invasive methods of measuring stratum corneum barrier function in vivo. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and the vascular response to hexyl nicotinate (HN) penetration as determined by laser-Doppler flowmetry, were measured in a group
Slaheddine Marrakchi et al.
Contact dermatitis, 55(1), 15-19 (2006-07-18)
Variation in human skin reactivity to various irritants in association with age and body region has been reported. Hexyl nicotinate (HN), a lipophilic nicotinate ester, was used to induce nonimmunologic contact urticaria in human volunteers of 2 age groups: 10
J Bettinger et al.
Dermatology (Basel, Switzerland), 197(1), 18-24 (1998-08-07)
It is known that glycerol in an oil-in-water emulsion has a protective effect against irritating substances. To answer the question: is the protection effect of glycerol based on a regenerative process? Upon irritation by either tape stripping or acetone treatment
A P Lavrijsen et al.
The British journal of dermatology, 129(5), 547-553 (1993-11-01)
In this study, we characterized the stratum corneum barrier function in 39 patients with various keratinization disorders (autosomal dominant ichthyosis vulgaris [ADI] [n = 7], X-linked recessive ichthyosis [XRI] [n = 6], autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis [CI] [n = 10]
