Influence of the time of occlusion on the quantitative parameters obtained by modelling trans-epidermal water loss curves to describe the human cutaneous barrier function in vivo

Understanding the human cutaneous barrier function is one of the main goals in the study of skin physiology. The plastic occlusion stress test (POST) is a well-known, dynamic approach for studying the barrier, evoking an over-stimulation of the cutaneous water assessed by the trans-epidermal water l...
