Long-life full-thickness skin model
Company 2020
Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, Duesseldorf, Germany
This full-thickness skin model can be kept in culture for up to 50 days. The fibroblasts and keratinocytes have reached an advanced state of homeostasis at a very early stage during tissue production, which is maintained throughout the whole culture period. The 4 times extended life-span, compared to the standard FT model, allows to monitor physiological, biochemical and genetic processes, e.g. after tissue exposure with chemicals, formulations or environmental impacts, over a long period of time.
