Anatomical site variation of water content in human skin measured by the Epsilon: A pilot study
Background This pilot study aimed to investigate the anatomical site variation of water content of the stratum corneum (SC) on the body by measuring skin capacitance with the Epsilon, a new generation corneometer with multiple sensors. Secondly, values of the Epsilon were compared to values measured...

description | Background
This pilot study aimed to investigate the anatomical site variation of water content of the stratum corneum (SC) on the body by measuring skin capacitance with the Epsilon, a new generation corneometer with multiple sensors. Secondly, values of the Epsilon were compared to values measured by conventional single sensor corneometers.
Methods
The hydration status of SC was measured in 15 healthy Caucasian volunteers with the Epsilon at five body sites (cheek, lower forearm, mid‐calf, lower back and abdomen). Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was measured with the Aquaflux to get more insight into the condition of the skin barrier. A literature search was performed to compare Epsilon values with conventional corneometers.
Results
The tested anatomical locations showed significant differences in water content (P |

Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was measured with the Aquaflux to get more insight into the condition of the skin barrier. A literature search was performed to compare Epsilon values with conventional corneometers.
Results
The tested anatomical locations showed significant differences in water content (P < 0.001) with large interindividual variations; highest values were found in the cheek (11.64ε) and lowest values in the mid‐calf (4.43ε). No correlation between water content and TEWL was found. In general, Epsilon values were lower compared to values of conventional corneometers, with a similar trend.
Conclusion
This pilot study showed significant variations in water content at different skin locations measured by the Epsilon. Moreover, the Epsilon measured consistent lower values compared to single sensor corneometers. Further validation of the device is recommended.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0909-752X</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1600-0846</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1111/srt.12653</identifier><identifier>PMID: 30604523</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>England: John Wiley & Sons, Inc</publisher><subject>Adult ; Body Water - metabolism ; Capacitance ; Cheek ; corneometer ; Electric Capacitance ; Epidermis - metabolism ; Epidermis - physiology ; Epsilon ; Female ; Forearm ; Galvanic Skin Response ; Humans ; Male ; Middle Aged ; Moisture content ; Organism Hydration Status ; Original ; Pilot Projects ; Skin ; skin barrier ; skin capacitance ; Stratum corneum ; Variation ; Water content ; Water loss ; Water Loss, Insensible</subject><ispartof>Skin research and technology, 2019-05, Vol.25 (3), p.333-338</ispartof><rights>2019 The Authors.
