简要总结
The goal is this study is to investigate the effects of dilute bleach on the skin of subjects with atopic dermatitis and those with healthy skin. The second goal is to evaluate the effects of different moisturizers on the skin barrier of subjects with and without atopic dermatitis. The investigators hypothesize that the bleach bath will increase the skin pH, decrease the skin hydration, and increase skin water loss in all study subjects. Secondly, the investigators hypothesize that moisturizers with the lowest pH and the highest water to oil ratio will result in improved skin barrier function. Furthermore, the investigators believe there will be a greater improvement in patients with atopic dermatitis.
详细描述
The study has two main parts. Subjects in both groups will have one forearm in a dilute bleach bath and the other arm in a water bath for 10 minutes. The change in skin will be measured using different painless devices. The second part of the study involves application of 4 various moisturizers. The change in skin will be measured over a period of time using the non-invasive devices.

时间窗: 10 minutes post-bath immersion
Subjects will immerse one randomized arm in a bleach bath and the other arm in a water bath for 10 minutes. The skin barrier function will be evaluated for change in transepidermal water loss after 10 minutes of bath immersion.
次要结局
- Change in skin hydration after moisturizer application(up to 60 minutes post-moisturizer application)
- Change in skin pH after moisturizer application(up to 60 minutes post-moisturizer application)
- Change in skin pH post-bath immersion(10 minutes post-bath immersion)
- Change in skin hydration post-bath immersion(10 minutes post-bath immersion)
- Change in transepidermal water loss after moisturizer application(up to 60 minutes post-moisturizer application)
