Skin integrity testing and monitoring of in vitro tape stripping by capacitance‐based sensor imaging

Despite the frequent use of porcine ear skin for tape‐stripping experiments, the peculiarities of this skin type have not been characterised in detail yet. Thus, different techniques were employed to investigate the skin surface structure of porcine ear skin and the changes in barrier function during in vitro tape stripping. To this end, the potential of capacitance‐based skin hydration imaging as a means of skin quality control was investigated for the first time.
