Dopachrome tautomerase (Dct) is a critical enzyme in the melanogenesis pathway that isomerizes the intermediate dopachrome to 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA) and influences the proportion of DHICA monomer incorporated into the 5,6-dihydroxyin ...
Vacuum-bag processing of honeycomb sandwich structures faces particular challenges compared to autoclave sandwich fabrication for aeronautics, a consequence of using, at the most, atmospheric pressure for their manufacturing. In particular, the adhesion of ...
Melanocytes respond to UVR not only by producing melanin, but also by proliferating. This is essentially a protective response. We have studied the melanocyte proliferative response after a single UVR exposure to neonatal mice. At 3 days post-UVR in wild-t ...
Ischemic wounds are characterized by oxygen levels lower than that of healthy skin ( hypoxia) and poor healing. To better understand the pathophysiology of impaired wound healing, we investigated how switching from high ( 21%) to low ( 2%) oxygen levels di ...
Embodiments of the present invention recite a computer implemented method and system for estimating skin color from an image. In embodiments of the present invention, an image of a subject and of an imaged reference color set is accessed. In embodiments of ...
The paper aims at exploring advantages and drawbacks of using high-frequency inductive links to transmit power wirelessly to implanted biosensors. A system with an external transmitting coil located into a skin patch and a receiving coil embedded into a fu ...

Skin tone images, portraits in particular, are of tremendous importance in digital photography, but a number of factors, such as pigmentation irregularities (e.g., moles, freckles), irritation, roughness, or wrinkles can reduce their appeal. Moreover, such ...
The skin wrinkling phenomenon was investigated in the case of ultra-light sandwich structures with a honeycomb core manufactured by one-shot vacuum bag processing. The interplay between process pressure and compressive strength of the skin was established. ...
Re-epithelialization is the dominant mode of healing in partial thickness wounds. In order to develop better strategies to monitor such wound healing, 3D HSE models and mathematical models have long been utilized to improve our understanding of epidermis f ...
This paper presents a novel method of enhancing image quality of face pictures using 3D and spectral information. Most conventional techniques directly work on the image data, shifting the skin color to a predefined skin tone, and so do not take into accou ...
