Optical Behavior of Human Skin Substitutes: Absorbance in the 200–400 nm UV Range

This study found that variations in mouse skin thickness, influenced by gender and hair growth cycles, significantly affect optical scattering measurements, which are important for developing biomedical optics techniques.

This study reports that a multifunctional artificial skin using photothermal-triggered drug delivery improved full-thickness wound healing and skin appendage regeneration by coordinating the release of several therapeutic agents.

This study found that while 450nm blue light can inhibit collagen and induce oxidative stress in dermal fibroblasts, 850nm near-infrared light may enhance metabolic activity without causing oxidative damage, suggesting potential for tailored light therapies in skin treatments.

This chapter discusses the composition, biocompatibility, and production methods of biomaterials like collagen, chitin, and silk for dermal substitutes, focusing on preclinical and clinical research, but reports no new clinical results.
