“…(Tregear, 1966) Tregear's work, alongside Burch et al, noted that recently dead skin does not affect the permeability of the skin, a major development in our ability to use excised skin in diffusion cells. This was shown experimentally for both water and tri-n-butyl phosphate (Burch and Winsor, 1946;Bronaugh and Stewart, 1984). Thus, excised skin can be used for measuring permeability.…”

“…The nail plate hydration plays a significant role in permeability of the nail plate. Water flux in fully hydrated nail plate was found to be 12.6±5.6 mg/cm 2 /h or 126±56 g/m 2 /h (permeability coefficient of (16.5±5.9)×10 −3 cm/h) by Walters et al., which is almost 6.5 times the value of 2.5 mg/cm 2 /h determined by Burch and Windson in dry nails . This is attributed to the fact that hydrated nail plate holds 0.3‐0.5 g of water/g of dry nail weight .…”

“…Working on diseased nails (eczema, psoriasis and onychomycosis), Krönauer estimated a mean TOWL of 12.9 g/m 2 /h (14). Burch and Windsor (17) found lower values but also important flux variations (1.6–53 g/m 2 /h) depending on the temperature and humidity. A standard TOWL calibration, not currently available, would make such a comparison more meaningful.…”

“…Few studies have documented human nail permeability (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21). Germann et al first described tape stripping on a nail to remove nail corneocytes (22).…”
