RAMAN TEST
Does Skin+ produce carotenoids?
Raman compared the production of pure carotenoids (Lycopene) to the production of carotenoids in Skin+. After 24 hours, Skin+ shows the same profi le as pure Lycopene which means that Skin+ produces carotenoids.
FRANZ CELL TEST
Do the Skin+ carotenoids reach the skin?
The main goal of this study was to prove that Skin+ carotenoids are absorbed by the skin. The research was conducted by treating pig skin with Skin+ fabric and check whether the carotenoids were absorbed by the skin. 15 µg of Skin+ was applied to a pig ear. After 6 hours of exposure, only 5,6 µg remained on the surface of the skin. This means that 9,4 µg was absorbed by the pig skin.
