Anti-Pollution Studies in-vivo By Proderm

6 September 2022

Proderm offers a range of testing methods

The contract research organization proderm conducts a variety of anti-pollution studies. Main focus is on the in-house developed methods cigarette smoke and coal dust application to skin, where the proof of effect is based on skin lipid peroxidation and fine dust residues, respectively.

In addition, skin pollution effects can be further analyzed by endpoints from protein oxidation or DNA damage or visualized by electron microscopy. Soon proderm will launch an additional method with ozone as a pollutant.

Barrier integrity is essential to protect from pollutants. Repair or strengthening of the skin can be evaluated by measurement of transepidermal water loss, skin hydration or Raman spectroscopy.
