Normal skin barrier function is an essential aspect of skin homeostasis and regeneration. Dynamic inflammatory, proliferative and neoplastic skin processes such as wound healing, psoriasis and contact dermatitis are associated with a significant disruption of the skin barrier. In recent years, there

The occurrence of skin irritation and contact dermatitis is a common problem in various occupational groups. The use of barrier creams represents a frequently utilized prophylactic measure for the protection of the skin, even if their effectiveness is hotly debated. Up to now, a number of in-vivo an
Solid microneedles enhance the penetration of drugs into the viable skin but little is known about the geometry of the conduits in vivo. Therefore, laser scanning microscopy was used to visualize the conduits of a microneedle system with needles at a length of 300 ฮผm in 6 healthy subjects over a per
Much research in medicine is focused on the development of antitumoral therapies. The encapsulation of the active single chemotherapy agent doxorubicin in highly stable Stealth^ยฎ^ liposomes can cause dominant and dose-limiting mucocutaneous reactions, such as the hand-foot syndrome. The aim of the p
Fiber-based confocal laser scanning microscopy affords a vast field of application in medical research and clinical practice. The application of fluorescent dye allows real-time imaging of yeasts of the genus Malassezia on human skin __in vivo__. An Ar^+^-laser is used to excite the fluorescent food
