Measurement of transepidermal water loss, stratum corneum hydration and skin surface pH in occupational settings: A review

Background The skin provides a permeable barrier which may be impaired in occupational settings. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL), stratum corneum hydration (SCH) and skin surface pH (SSpH) have been used in occupational settings to predict early onset of occupational skin diseases, to measure the e...
