Squalene Depletion in Skin Following Human Exposure to Ozone under Controlled Chamber Conditions
A major component of human skin oil is squalene, a highly unsaturated hydrocarbon that protects the skin from atmospheric oxidants. Skin oil, and thus squalene, is continuously replenished on the skin surface. Squalene is also quickly consumed through reac ...
Amer Chemical Soc2024Laser-induced liquid micro-jets for drug delivery
Jet injection devices have been studied and developed for transdermal drug delivery to avoid the use of needles. Such contact-less devices provide several advantages such as better dose control, lateral and depth localisation, lower collateral damage than ...
EPFL2021Repetitive regime of highly focused liquid microjets for needle-free injection
Christophe Moser, Paul Delrot, Jan Krizek
Fast liquid jets are investigated for use as a needle-free drug delivery system into an elastic tissue such as skin. Using smaller jet diameters in a repetitive regime can mitigate bruising and pain associated with current injectors. In this study, we aim ...
2020In vivo imaging reveals selective PPAR activity in the skin of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor responsive element-luciferase reporter mice
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) have been revealed as key regulators of several skin disorders. This has led to a growing interest in the development of drugs targeting PPARs as therapeutics for skin diseases. To evaluate skin PPAR acti ...
2013Model surfaces for human hair
The thesis describes the development of surfaces that model the surface of human hair in order to characterize the adsorption of detergents and perfumes. Three types of model surfaces were investigated consisting of (i) a self-assembled monolayer of protei ...
