Changes in Skin Structure and Electrical Properties following High Voltage Exposure

Human skin experiences extensive alterations when exposed to a strong electric field. In high voltage electric shocks, tissues in the current path undergo large‐scale changes; the stratum corneum (SC), the outermost layer of the skin, loses its barrier function against ionic transport. The primary m...
