June 2010 in “Journal of Veterinary Clinics” This study established an experimental model to visualize calcium ion distribution after skin barrier damage in canine epidermis, observing that calcium gradients changed differently depending on the type of damage and time elapsed.
February 2024 in “Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (Universidade de São Paulo)” This study demonstrated that using a mass spectrometry imaging technique, researchers were able to visualize the incorporation of argan, avocado, and coconut oils into hair fibers, suggesting their potential in cosmetic and alopecia treatments by confirming oil absorption and fiber modification.

January 2013 in “Colloids and surfaces. B, Biointerfaces” This study found that melanin granules in black human hair are key dyeing regions for oxidative hair coloring, as confirmed by nanoscale mass spectrometry analysis detecting deuterium ions.
In this study, imaging techniques showed that nanostructured lipid carrier formulations distributed ascorbic acid more effectively across skin layers compared to conventional cream formulations, suggesting a better method for skin permeation.
