Friction, capacitance and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) in dry atopic and normal skin

Summary The biophysical properties of non‐eczematous skin at three locations in atopics and non‐atopics were characterized using non‐invasive physical methods. Skin friction was measured with a newly developed sliding friction instrument, the degree of hydration with a capacitance meter (Corneometer...
