Name

SkinEthicTM RHPE / Reconstructed Human Pigmented Epidermis

Description

The SkinEthicTM RHPE model is composed of normal human keratinocytes cultivated in the presence of melanocytes of phototype II, IV or VI, localized in the basal layer. The different tanning degrees of these constructs correspond macroscopically to 3 different phototypes of human skin.
