SPEX® SkinSkan ...When
Fluorescence Won't Come To You
The
only in-vivo, fibre-optic spectrofluorometer designed specifically
for skin-fluorescence measurements.
Features and Benefits
- A quartz fibre bundle selectively delivers uv-nir radiation to the subject, then collects the resulting fluorescence. There's no need for sample preparation, cuvettes, or adaptation.
- Unique spectrometer designs isolate the fluorescence signal from strong scattered backgrounds.
- Fast wavelength scanning minimises the time of measurement and exposure to excitation light.
- Compact and transportable to take the instrument to where the action is.
Applications
- Acquire direct fluorescence from the skin.
- Evaluate topical cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
- Differentiate normal, aged or diseased skin.
- Assay and quantify drug delivery in PDT.
- Validate UVA protection of sunscreens.
- Determine epidermal proliferation.
- Asses hair damage from sun or chemicals.
- Identify or quantify trace contaminants for environmental testing.
- Go anywhere to record fluorescence spectra.
