[Analysis Case] Observation of Fine Surface Morphology of Three-Dimensional Cultured Human Skin

Visualization of nanoscale roughness on the skin surface using AFM.

In recent years, the development of alternative methods to animal testing for the efficacy and safety testing of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics has been progressing, with particular attention being paid to testing methods using three-dimensional cultured skin. In this case study, a percutaneous absorption test of a cosmetic (lotion) was conducted using three-dimensional cultured human skin, which was measured using AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy). This allows for a visual evaluation of the microstructure of the skin surface, and it is also possible to quantitatively assess the roughness of any specific area. By measuring under atmospheric conditions, it is possible to observe the samples while minimizing alterations that would occur under vacuum conditions.

[Analysis Case] Observation of Hair Surface Microstructure by AFM

Quantitative evaluation with reduced alteration is possible through analysis in the atmosphere.

This case study introduces an analysis of the condition of the cuticle on the hair surface using AFM. AFM is a method for three-dimensional measurement of nanoscale surface roughness. Since the analysis is conducted in the atmosphere, it does not cause degradation or gas release of organic materials, allowing for an evaluation of the sample's original shape. In this case study, we assessed the degree of cuticle opening, the distribution of adhered substances, and the roughness evaluation of different areas through images, as well as quantitatively evaluated the surface roughness through numerical processing. This method is effective for evaluating the condition of hair after shampooing and the application state after applying styling products.

[Analysis Case] Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Food (Roast Ham) by AFM-MA

Quantifying texture with mechanical property parameters.

Factors that determine texture include various elements such as hardness and adhesion. Generally, the texture of food is evaluated through stress assessment using tools like texture analyzers, but measuring in micro-regions or thin samples is challenging. AFM-MA can measure not only the shape of surface roughness but also the Young's modulus representing mechanical properties like hardness, adhesion parameters related to texture, and energy dissipation data in micro-regions. Therefore, it is effective for evaluating physical properties related to texture and similar characteristics in extremely small areas.
