UVA rays, with wavelengths between 320-400nm, account for approximately 95% of UV radiation reaching Earth's surface. These rays penetrate deeply into the skin, reaching the dermis layer where they damage collagen and elastin fibers. ...
Summary When making a purchase, particularly one that can have a positive impact on your health and well-being, it’s only natural to have questions. To assist you in making informed decisions, we’ve compiled a list of 10 questions and our responses. However, we understand that each person’s needs and concerns are unique. If you find yourself with additional questions that ...
Moisturizers Moisturizers are paramount in keeping our skin hydrated and preventing dryness. They work by creating a protective barrier on the skin's surface, reducing water loss and sealing in moisture. ...
Therefore, solid microneedles can be used to deliver drugs in two steps: the first step is to make the microneedles puncture the skin surface to form micropores; the second step is to remove the solid microneedles and apply the drug on the microneedle puncture site. ...
Range hood cleaners are highly alkaline and may contain organic solvents for effectively cleaning range hoods, stoves, and hard surfaces like ventilation fans, floor tiles, porcelain, and metal. However, they should not be used for cleaning items other than hard surfaces, and direct contact with skin should be avoided. ...
This case study illustrates designing and fabricating silicone bolus using the Adaptiiv software solution. This flexible silicone bolus fabrication process was then compared to the fabrication process of a rigid 3D printed bolus to determine whether it yielded comparable or improved plan metrics for treating an inner canthus ...
Summary In this Cell Patterns publication, Ozette co-founders and collaborators at the Cancer Immunotherapy Trials Network (CITN) outline a novel method of analysis of single cell data, FAUST, and validate the multiple potential applications. The paper tackles 2 important problems: 1) analysis of complex single cell datasets; 2) prediction of response to immunotherapy in cancer. Manual ...
Analysis of oral and respiratory tract microbial diversity with 16S/18S/ITS amplicon sequencing is able to obtain a precise analysis of microbial diversity, community structure, species relationship, and increase people's understanding of relationships among oral health, respiratory tract health and disease-related microorganisms. · Skin The main function of ...
Cosmetics containing vitamin C and vitamin E liposomes have the antioxidant capacity and can act on melanocytes in the deep layer of the skin, thereby effectively reducing skin pigmentation and enhancing the whitening and anti-wrinkle effect of cosmetics. ...
Reparative versus Regenerative Healing When small portions of the skin’s surface (epidermis) are destroyed, such as with superficial wounds ( The body’s reparative healing process is unorganized, rapidly closing the wound to protect it from further insult. ...
Blueberry were recently invited to write two commentaries on the challenges of treating skin and nail diseases and the potential for nanotechnology approaches in dermal drug delivery. Here we share a brief overview of these articles. We will all have encountered someone who is dealing with or has previously experienced a common ailment of the skin or nails, such as eczema (atopic dermatitis), ...
When trauma to the skin occurs, large areas of both the skin’s surface (epidermis) and deeper layers (dermis) may be destroyed. In many cases, large full-thickness wounds may require temporization due to the lack of suitable donor sites for primary skin grafting. Clinical research[1] indicates the temporization of deep, ...
Also referred to as stitches, sutures are sterile surgical threads used to repair cuts or wounds to your skin and other tissues. They can be used to close incisions from surgery or wounds from trauma. ...
Slight enlargement of the pores on the surface of the skin. Change in the color of the skin on the surface. ...
A major reason turns out to be the microbes on our skin. Approximately 20 percent of microbes reside in the dermis layer, and when a needle penetrates the skin, some of these microbes are collected by the needle and can enter the blood culture bottle. Even scrubbing with an alcohol pad does not necessarily prevent sub-surface ...
