What makes Labskin unique? In short, the way it is constructed. A full-thickness dermis and epidermis allows the production of anti-microbial peptides (AMPs) and naturally produced proteins in the Labskin. This, combined with thick and dry stratum corneum<\/em> allows the Labskin to support full skin microbiome on it\u2019s surface, including bacteria, yeast, fungi or viruses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

LET’S WORK TOGETHER!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether the requirements are for rapid, focused analysis or flexible, tailor-made research programmes we can help develop and validate your products with scientifically proven methods. Labskin offers more than testing on skin models. We can do anything from MICs, tampon safety testing, single cell assays to cytotoxicity testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Partnering with Labskin allows you to benefit from expert scientists to cost-effectively accelerate your development cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Labskin skin model is a 3D human skin equivalent that incorporates vital biological components to model normal skin function. Developed over 15 years with more than 30 scientific journal publications, it is made from young keratinocytes (human skin cells) and adult fibroblasts (metabolically-active, collagen-producing human skin cells).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
