Methods of Exploring Human Apocrine Sweat Gland Physiology

Fox-Fordyce Disease: Successful Treatment with Topical Clindamycin in Alcoholic Propylene Glycol Solution

“…The apocrine sweat gland docs not develop until puberty and shows involutional changes in later life [9]. This is in keeping with the age incidence of this disease.…”

Semantics-driven design for bonding with human scent

“…This recognisable odour comes, among others, from the maternal axillary (armpit) (Cernoch and Porter, 1985) and neck (Schaal, 1986) region. In these regions, apocrine sweat glands secrete fluid that carries an individual unique human scent (Shelley and Hurley, 1952). The olfactory content of this scent depends on three factors: genetics, diet or environmental factors, and influences of outside sources (e.g., lotions, soaps, perfumes, etc.)…”
