Squalene Depletion in Skin Following Human Exposure to Ozone under Controlled Chamber Conditions

Shen Yang

A major component of human skin oil is squalene, a highly unsaturated hydrocarbon that protects the skin from atmospheric oxidants. Skin oil, and thus squalene, is continuously replenished on the skin surface. Squalene is also quickly consumed through reac ...

Tuning Napththalenediimide Cations for Incorporation into Ruddlesden–Popper-Type Hybrid Perovskites

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Kevin Sivula, Jun Ho Yum, Liang Yao, Etienne Christophe Socie, Simon Nussbaum

Layered hybrid organic−inorganic perovskite (LHOIP) materials constructed with low-band-gap chromophore-based organic spacer cations are anemerging class of materials that promise unique tunability of their optoelectronic properties. However, the large siz ...

Fabrication of micrometer-sized drops as templates for particles

Mathias Steinacher

Drops are omnipresent in our daily life for example in the form of rain drops or as oil drops in a salad dressing. On a technological basis, drops can be used to conduct chemical or biological reactions. These drops often serve as templates to produce mate ...

Skin lightening products' violations in Europe: An analysis of the rapid alert system for dangerous non-food products 2005-2018

Florentino Luciano Caetano Dos Santos

Background: Skin lightening products containing dangerous levels of chemicals pose a serious health concern for consumers. However, to date, the extent of these products in Europe has not been extensively studied. The aim of this study was to determine whe ...

Microbiological contamination of cosmetic products - observations from Europe, 2005-2018

Florentino Luciano Caetano Dos Santos

Background Although cosmetic products are not expected to be fully aseptic, their potential microbiological contamination might be dangerous, especially for immunocompromised patients. The extent of such contamination of cosmetics in Europe is poorly studi ...

Mechano-responsive microcapsules with uniform thin shells

Esther Amstad, Antoine Claude Jean Vian

Capsules often prolong the shelf-life of active ingredients, such as many types of drugs, food additives, or cosmetic substances, because they delay oxidation of these substances or prevent their reactions with molecules contained in the surrounding. If ca ...

Detection of Age-Induced Makeup Attacks on Face Recognition Systems Using Multi-Layer Deep Features

Sébastien Marcel, Zohreh Mostaani

Makeup is a simple and easy instrument that can alter the appearance of a person’s face, and hence, create a presentation attack on face recognition (FR) systems. These attacks, especially the ones mimicking ageing, are difficult to detect due to their clo ...

Capsules with submicron shells: production, stability, and leakage behavior

Antoine Claude Jean Vian

Capsules are often employed to prolong the shelf-life of active ingredients such as many drugs, food additives, or cosmetic substances because they delay their oxidation or prevent interactions with molecules contained in the surrounding. If designed prope ...

Nanotoxicology: 2D analysis in a 3D matrix

Anders Meibom, Louise Helene Soegaard Jensen

Engineered nanoparticles are the fastest growing nanotechnology product, and of increasing environmental concern. Examples include antimicrobial silver nanoparticles, iron oxide particles used in bulk scale for environmental remediation, and micro- and nan ...

Plastic pollution in Swiss surface waters: nature and concentrations, interaction with pollutants

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Florian Faure, Colin Demars

Marine microplastic (,5 mm) water pollution has met growing public and scientific interest in the last few years. The situation in freshwater environments remains largely unknown, although it appears that they play an important role as part of the origin o ...

What impacts skin color in digital photos?

Stefan Winkler, Albrecht Johannes Lindner

Skin colors are important for a broad range of imaging applications to assure quality and naturalness. We discuss the impact of various metadata on skin colors in images, i.e. how does the presence of a metadata attribute influence the expected skin color ...

Non-autoclave processing of honeycomb sandwich structures: Skin through thickness air permeability during cure

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Véronique Michaud

In non-autoclave processing of sandwich structures, the pressure level inside the honeycomb becomes a critical process parameter, which depends on the permeability to air of the upper skin. In this work, prepreg and adhesive permeabilities were determined ...

Assessing human skin color from uncalibrated images

Sabine Süsstrunk

Images of a scene captured with multiple cameras will have different color values due to variations in color rendering across devices. We present a method to accurately retrieve color information from uncalibrated images taken under uncontrolled lighting c ...

Color correction of uncalibrated images for the classification of human skin color

Sabine Süsstrunk

Images of a scene captured with multiple cameras will have different color values due to variations in capture and color rendering across devices. We present a method to accurately retrieve color information from uncalibrated images taken under uncontrolle ...

Photocatalytic Discoloration of Organic Compounds on Outdoor Building Cement Panels Modified by Photoactive Coatings

César Pulgarin, Victor Sarria

Cement based Eternit plates modified by TiO2/SiO2 surface layers acquired self-cleaning properties. The TiO2/SiO2 coating was transparent indicating that the small TiO2 (rutile) crystals cause no significant scattering. The parameters related to the compos ...

Model surfaces for human hair : screening perfumes and surfactants

Mabel Maucci

The thesis describes the development of surfaces that model the surface of human hair in order to characterize the adsorption of detergents and perfumes. Three types of model surfaces were investigated consisting of (i) a self-assembled monolayer of protei ...

Surfactant-mediated interaction of fragrances with cellulose model surfaces

Mahtab Varnous

Odor perception may be considered from different perspectives: the physicochemical properties of odorants and target surfaces of interest, the biological aspects of electing odorant molecules by odorant receptors and their related downstream cellular signa ...
