D-Squame Scan 850A Instrument
  • The SquameScan® 850A reduces the measuring time to a few seconds per tape strip, consequently saving costs. Additionally, the tape strip can be used for any other bioassay.

  • The instrument is designed to indirectly measure the stratum corneum (SC) protein content on D-SQUAME® discs.

  • Compared to the equipment required for colorimetric determination, the SquameScan® 850A has several advantages like a low price, compact dimensions, and easy handling.

  • Convenient and user-friendly determination is done by measuring the optical absorption of the disc at about 850nm (infrared light).

  • The value is displayed in % and is translated into protein content by using a simple transfer function y= a*x-b. The infrared light prevents the thermal denaturing of biomolecules and influences ambient light on the measurement result.

  • D-SQUAME® discs are placed adhesive side up into a carrier that takes up to 10 discs and a blank.

  • The carrier avoids contamination of tape discs during measurement and secures alignment in the SquameScan® 850A.

  • The measured diameter is 15mm, thus covering more than half of the available disc area.

  • So the effect of inhomogeneity of corneocyte distribution on the D-SQUAME® disc is reduced.

  • The SquameScan® 850A is equipped with a USB port to transfer the data to a PC enabling efficient documentation and analysis of data generated.
