New research collaboration between 3Helix Inc., USA, and Phenion

Cooperation in the field of collagen research

We are happy to announce a research collaboration with 3Helix Inc. ‏(USA), the developer of the Collagen Hybridizing Peptide ‏(CHP) technology which targets damaged or denatured collagen in biological samples with high specificity. This interesting collaboration is investigating skin damage using our Phenion® Full-Thickness Skin Models and 3Helix’s CHPs. By joining forces, we are looking forward to developing an innovative skin testing kit that can provide a standardized way to evaluate skin damage in vitro.

Tewitro® TW 24R device, developed by Courage + Khazaka electronic GmbH, Cologne

NEW: Non-invasive technology for the evaluation of skin barrier properties in Phenion® FT Skin Models

The Tewitro® TW 24R device, developed by Courage + Khazaka, Cologne, has proven its value to reliably measure the transepithelial water loss ‏(TEWL) in 3-dimensional human Phenion® Full-Thickness Skin Models. The TEWL is a meaningful parameter to assess the physiological status of the dermal barrier, which, if intact, protects our skin against environmental impacts and prevents undesired water loss.
