IN VITRO FULL-SKIN MODEL CONTAINING THREE-DIMENSIONAL CELL CULTURE MODELS OF THE SWEAT GLAND

摘要

The present disclosure concerns an in-vitro full skin model which comprises a dermal equivalent and epidermal equivalent as well as from about 1 to about 100 three-dimensional sweat gland equivalents with respectively from about 500 to about 500000 sweat gland cells as well as a diameter of respectively from about 100 to about 6000 μm on a supporting layer. Furthermore, the present disclosure concerns the production of the full skin model as well as the use of this model as an in-vitro model, in screening methods as well as for in-vitro evaluation of the influence of cosmetic substances on the inhibition of sweat secretion as well as body odor.
