Abstract

The deterioration of skin barrier function causes symptoms such as allergy as various chemical substances may enter human body. We think it is very useful to quantitatively evaluate the stratum corneum thickness and the water content of stratum corneum as the skin barrier function in domains such as dermatology, nursing science and the cosmetics development. We studied the new model regarded as the parallel model of the resistor and the capacitor applied the stratum corneum thickness of the skin stripped model measured the confocal laser scanning microscopy and the water content of stratum corneum of the skin stripped model measured the confocal raman microscopy. We found the stratum corneum thickness with the impedance has strong correlation with the stratum corneum thickness with the confocal laser scanning microscopy, and the water content of stratum corneum with the impedance has strong correlation with the stratum corneum thickness with the confocal raman microscopy.
