The location of an essential ceramide for skin barrier function within the lo...
The body is protected from the external environment by the stratum corneum (SC) layer of the skin. It is believed that the lamellar lipid matrix, which encases the corneocytes,... -
Determining the Structure of Simple Stratum Corneum Lipid Models for Drug Del...
Using a simple model we wish to mimic the lipid structure of the stratum corneum (the top layer of the skin). The simple model offers several advantages to our research area... -
Investigating the response of lipid bilayers to physically structured substrates
The functionality of biological membranes is closely tied to their structural behavior. To understand this behavior we propose to study the conformality of artificial lipid... -
Understanding the skin barrier design: identifying the conformation of cerami...
The stratum corneum layer of the skin acts as a barrier between the body and the external environment. This is achieved by dead corneocytes encased in a lamellar lipid matrix,... -
Ceramide conformational thermotropic behaviour within the skins long periodi...
The stratum corneum layer of the skin acts as a barrier between the body and the external environment. This is achieved by corneocytes encased in a lamellar lipid matrix, which...
