Electrochemical Imaging of Molecular Transport in Skin

Description
Scanning electrochemical imaging allows visualization of molecular transport in biological membranes with 20 nm resolution.

Research will determine:

What are the transport pathways?

What are the transport mechanisms?

Where do electroosmotic forces originate in skin?

Implications
In-situ visualization of membrane transport pathways is employed at Utah to better understand iontophoretic transdermal drug delivery mechanisms.
