D-SQUAME^® Skin Sampling Discs
D-SQUAME^® Skin Indicators
D-SQUAME^® Label Style Indicators

D-SQUAME^® Skin Sampling Discs take the trial and error out of sampling the cells of the superficial stratum corneum (top layer of skin). These crystal clear discs provide the required rigidity and adhesion to uniformly sample a fixed area of skin surface. The clear polymer discs provide optimum visibility of adhering skin cells and allow staining by many histological preparations. Available in two sizes: Standard and Stripping.

APPLICATIONS

Marketing
Especially effective for visualizing dry, damaged skin at sites such as the back of the hand and lower leg. Testing of skin sites can guide customer to the proper application of specialized moisturizers, exfolients or other skin treatment regimens. Skin condition before and after product use can also be easily demonstrated with D-SQUAME^® discs.

Research
D-SQUAME^® discs uniformly sample a fixed area of stratum corneum for precise skin studies. Adhering corneocytes can be analyzed for drugs and other constituents. Stripping discs provide a convenient way to reproducibly remove the stratum corneum for subsequent analysis procedures.

Safety
Skin is momentarily contacted by fully cured medical grade synthetic polyacrylate ester adhesive.
