The chronic effects of the irritant sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) on stratum corneum (SC) barrier function, determined by transepidermal water loss (TEWL) measurements and on epidermal cell kinetics, estimated by stratum corneum turnover time (SCTT) determination (dansyl chloride staining method), were investigated in 18 healthy female volunteers. SLS (7·5%) was applied without occlusion for 20 min once daily, over a period of 3 weeks (5 days a week) on dansyl chloride‐stained skin and on…

Compared with the skin irritation induced by SLS, under these test conditions, calcipotriol is a far weaker irritant on normal human skin and accelerates stratum corneum turnover to a significantly greater extent than its vehicle.

It is assumed, that increased basal TEWL in patients with ICD may relied a constitutional deviation of epidermal barrier function, and seems to be comparable with the well‐known symptom of atopic individuals.

The influence of hard water (calcium) and surfactants on irritant contact dermatitis

Investigation of differences in surfactant‐induced irritant skin reactions from cumulative exposure to 3 different personal cleansing agents found the hardness of the rinse water to be the more significant factor, versus that of the wash water.
Damage to the skin by repetitive washing
- Chemistry, MedicineContact dermatitis

Skin function regeneration showed no difference with the 2 surfactants used, and damage arising from repetitive washing could not be completely prevented by the selection of a mild surfactant.

Prediction of susceptibility to an irritant response by transepidermal water loss
- MedicineContact dermatitis
- 1989
Baseline TEWL may be used as a reasonably accurate preliminary “predictive” screening test for susceptibility to irritants and multiple linear regression analysis of results indicated that a high baseline TewL is a better indication of an individual's increased susceptibility to weak irritants than a high TEWl value following a single 24‐h patch test.

TEWL and WC responses showed a greater sensitivity in hispanics possibly reflecting a different modulation of the water burner function after chemical exposure, and the microcirculatory response, as long as detected with LDV, was similar in the 2 groups.
